Firefighters, law enforcement and rescue personnel from China and nearby towns paraded their vehicles down Main Street in China Village Sunday, April 5, in honor of retired firefighter, fire chief and China General Store owner Jack Sylvester, home after five months at the Woodlands Center, in Waterville. The flashing red and blue lights and noisy sirens accompanied a large Welcome Home, Jack, sign.
As the weather warms, look for Jack sitting on his front porch, often with wife Ann beside him, waving at passing drivers, with a special smile for the ones who obey the 25-mile-an-hour speed limit.
