To the Editor:
This past Saturday, June 11,we received a phone call from our son telling us that our daughter and our granddaughters were being transported to the hospital.
They were in the ocean only a few yards offshore when they were caught in a riptide. One of the girls was able to get back to the beach while her mom and sister were struggling. Within moments the lifeguards were there. One young lady grabbed them and was able with the assistance of the other guards to bring them both to safety.
