Dear Editor:
I am writing to thank the Hoboken Fire Department for continuing the great tradition of giving Santa a ride through town on Christmas eve. I’m sure he appreciates it, I know we do!
I remember when I was young, running out the door in excitement as soon as I heard the siren. Now my two fireman crazy boys do the same thing. The sight of Santa on a fire truck is almost too much for them. It’s really terrific! I can’t thank them enough for this wonderful Christmas gift.
Anyone out there know how it got started and how long ago? Just curious. Thanks again.
Irene Sobolov
