My father, Robert Barsanti, was in that school on that day. A 5th grader who had no clue how his life was going to change in a split second. The stories and details that my dad tells me leave me speechless. I can't even imagine what each student, teacher, or parent went through that awful day, let alone the days, weeks, or years that followed.
My heart goes out to each family member that was effected by that fire.
I am so proud of what my dad did December 1, 1958 to survive. He is my hero. And although I was not around then, those stories, photos, and memories that my father tells me makes me so appreciative of life.
God Bless those students and families.
