    logo_sedonafiredistrict2Sedona AZ (November 3, 2019) – At 01:56 Saturday morning, November 2nd, Sedona firefighters were dispatched to the Sedona Winds assisted living facility located at 475 Jacks Canyon Rd. for a fire in one of the residential units.  “The automatic fire sprinkler system had extinguished most of the fire before we arrived,” said Captain David Rodriguez, “limiting fire damage to the one room.”  The fire was discovered by a nurse’s aid when the sprinkler system activated and triggered the buildings fire alarm system.  The aid was able to evacuate the resident from the room and unplugged the HVAC unit which appeared to be the cause of the fire.

    “This was an amazing success story,” said Fire Marshal Jon Davis, “A working fire sprinkler system, combined with a well-trained staff and a quick response by firefighters resulted in the best possible outcome.”  “I have no doubt that without all of those elements coming together, the outcome would have resulted in injury or death to occupants of the building and damage to the structure would have been extensive.” said Davis, “Incidents like this really highlight how a comprehensive fire safety strategy can benefit a community.”

    Yavapai County Sheriffs Office Deputies along with YCSO Search & Rescue members and Sedona Police Department assisted at the scene with the temporary evacuation of residents from the wing of the building where the fire occurred.  Approximately 20 residents were displaced for a couple of hours and the resident of the room where the fire occurred, had to be relocated to another room while theirs is repaired.

    Sedona Fire District investigators determined that the fire started when the in-room, wall mounted HVAC unit malfunctioned.  There were no injuries reported and damage is estimated at $20,000.

    Hey Papi
    Happy Father’s Day Papi!

    How’s it going up there in heaven? It’s Father’s Day here on Earth, and I’m thinking of you—missing you—now that I’m one year older than you were when you passed away. I just want to thank you for everything you taught me. Thank you for taking such good care of me. Thank you for helping me walk when I couldn’t walk. Thank you for making me strong against all adversity. Thank you for teaching me how to look behind the scenes and see what’s not being shown.
