appreciation for<br />

Fire Station 56<br />

Staff Report<br />

The Woolsey Fire has<br />

ended, but the memories of<br />

the disaster have not.<br />

Yvonne Tang, a resident<br />

of Tongareva Street in Malibu,<br />

was one of the lucky<br />

ones — and she credits it<br />

all to firefighters from her<br />

local fire station, Ventura<br />

County Fire Station 56.<br />

“On Nov. 9, Captain<br />

[Dennis] O’Shea deployed a<br />

16-truck strike team to save<br />

our entire neighborhood<br />

at Ventura County Line,”<br />

she wrote in a Jan. 5 email<br />

to the Surfside News. “The<br />

fire burned to the ocean, but<br />

they saved all our homes!<br />

During evacuation, they<br />

stationed 24-hour patrols to<br />

prevent looting.”<br />

On Dec. 6, she said the<br />

crews again appeared to<br />

Malibu Urgent Care<br />

render aid in the heavy rain.<br />

On Jan. 4, Tang and others<br />

hung a banner to thank<br />

the first responders.<br />

“They are our personal<br />

heroes and cherished<br />

neighbors,” Tang wrote.<br />
