A 95 YEAR OLD WOMAN MADE HISTORY TODAY AND SURPRISINGLY, IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH HER AGE. MABEL MCCULLOUGH (MA-COO-LOW) CELEBRATED HER BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE THAT HELD ALL 95 CANDLES. FIREFIGHTERS ARRIVED ON THE SCENE JUST MINUTES AFTER FRIENDS HELPED HER BLOW OUT THE CANDLES.
FIVE FIRE ENGINES AND 24 FIREFIGHTERS RUSHED TO FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH AFTER SMOKE FROM THE CANDLES SET OFF THE CHURCH’S FIRE ALARMS. THE WOMEN NEVER HEARD THE ALARMS GO OFF AND WERE SURPRISED TO SEE THE FIREFIGHTERS IN THE DOORWAY.
FIRE CHIEF LONNIE LAMB SAID: "In my 25 years on the job, I've seen a lot of things set off a fire alarm, but I don't think I ever heard of one going off because of a birthday cake."
AND NO NEED FOR GOODIE BAGS, MABEL AND HER FRIENDS GOT TO TAKE PHOTOS WITH THE FIREFIGHTERS INSTEAD.
