Molly (the Fire Dog) passed away yesterday.
Her passing was peaceful at home, where she was most comfortable. I am just beginning to process Molly’s loss but I do feel profoundly grateful to have had her in my life.🐾

Smoke alarms play a critical role in our safety. Working smoke alarms can mean the difference between surviving a fire or not.🏡🔥
👉Test each month,
👉Replace every 10 years
👉Change batteries every year or when it chirps.
Don't forget, even hardwired alarms expire.
