Raelynn Wankowski is only 10 weeks old, and she already has been to her first reunion.
The newborn and her parents, Justin and Rachel Wankowski, went to the local firehouse Wednesday to reunite with the firefighters who helped to deliver Raelynn into the world.
It was the first baby delivery in the nearly 70-year history of the Tichigan Volunteer Fire Co.
So the Fire Company invited the Wankowski family to the station Wednesday for a celebration where Raelynn could meet her heroes, and vice versa. It was the first time that the firefighters had seen Raelynn since her birth on Nov. 3.
“It’s one of those happy endings,” said fire department Lt. Stephanie Miller as she and her colleagues greeted the baby girl, who now holds a special place as an informal member of the Fire Company’s family.
