There was no fire, no wreck or emergency, but instead a call to duty as firemen from all over East Texas took time out on Saturday to show respect to their fellow firefighter, Tri-Community Fire Chief Vandie Smith, Jr.
The services began shortly after 11:00 at the Springhill Baptist Church at Magnolia Springs for Chief Smith and ended and ended a short time later with full fireman honors at the nearby Springhill Cemetery.
Smith died on Friday July 2nd at the age of 64 following a long illness.
The most solemn moment came when an emergency dispatcher sounded a tone for the last time calling on Chief Vandy Anderson.
