Prior to Sal being appointed as a career firefighter with the Edison Division of Fire, he was a long time member of Oak Tree Volunteer Fire Co., out of Station 5. Although assigned to Station 1 at the time of his passing, he spent many days and nights at Station 5, before and after his appointment. Station 5 was selected by his closest friends as the right location for this small garden. Proceeds from the T-shirt sales were used to purchase various plants and shrubs with a members connections for a discount. The stones, boulders, topsoil and mulch were donated by several members. There is a plaque now on the front rock, it rained like heck about 15 minutes after the first shovelful was removed! So we had to wait for the stone to dry out. Thanks to all who helped with this project. Before
