Volunteer firefighters know a lot about devotion to duty and service to the community. Even so, some efforts stand apart. After finding out one of their young volunteers was walking more than two miles to get to the fire station, members of the Red Oak Community Rural Fire Department decided to make the trip a little easier for him and his younger brother. The two brothers, Isaiah and Jordan Prophet, were presented with new bicycles and safety gear during the station’s monthly business meeting. Newly appointed Pitt County Commissioner Lauren Spain White joined the effort and helped make the presentation.
