Liberty Firehouse Interview

Friday, January 1, 1960

If a neighbor hadn’t seen smoke pouring from 433 Vine Street, fire may have claimed the Iampietro family and their home. John Iampietro remembers the source of the fire – a cigar butt a boarder had left in his coat pocket for later. While the family slept, the coat closet caught fire and smoke began pouring from the house. Fortunately, help wasn’t too far away; the Liberty Fire Company, located across street from the Iampietro home, was ready to respond to the fire.
