To the Editor:

Somehow saying “thank you” doesn’t seem to be enough.

Our “thank yous” start with Deputy Chief Matt Letts of the Beach Haven Fire Co., who is a real hero in this story. He was driving in the area of 86th Street on Long Beach Boulevard just after 2 a.m. Sunday morning, Jan. 22. He told us he was sure that he picked up the smell of smoke, which is pretty amazing considering the smell that has been coming from the water and sewer project going on in that area.
