10-Year-Old San Francisco Boy Gets Birthday Visit From Fire Department
Stuck at home because of the coronavirus shelter-in-place order, Kieran Healy had a memorable birthday. Watch the video of the ladder truck!
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) — A ten-year-old San Francisco boy who was missing out on birthday festivities due to the COVID-19 crisis got his spirits boosted Tuesday when the San Francisco Fire Department paid a special visit to his home in SF’s West Portal neighborhood.
San Francisco native Tim Healy and his wife Robin Lim-Healy had already been forced to cancel a planned trip to Southern California for their son Kieran’s 10th birthday to visit Legoland in Carlsbad. They were hoping to do something unique to make Kieran’s birthday memorable.
The fire department ladder truck extended it’s ladder to its full height of 110 feet — about seven stories — to show Keiran what it could do. The firefighters also delivered a bag full presents to the happy birthday boy.
