Hi. My name is Julie Bontz. I'm 25 years old. I 'm 6 foot 5 in. and I weigh 110 lbs. I have

blonde brown hair and blue eyes. My mother's name is Crystyl and my father's is Lieutenant Lou Bontz. My dad was lieutenant of (FDNY)Fire Department #212 in the 55th precinct. He was killed in an automobile fire a week ago. Some of the guys are giving the new lieutenant, a good friend of mine, a hard time. I went to see what that was about.

"He's screwing up Julie!"

"Maybe he is but Jimmy is trying as hard as he can."

"Lou would be pissed!"

"I give up! Talking to you is like talking to a two year old!"

I went downstairs with Jimmy. The guys were still listening though.

"My father loved you guys like brothers. He said this was his second home. He g ave his life for it. So, if those guys want to throw away everything dad ever taught them, let 'em. But he would be so dissapointed."

"How's come you're not sad, Jules?"

"Because in the hopital before he died, he told me 'Jules, when I die, don't cry, cause I've lived a good, long, life. Let the guys know that'. I won't cry but I will grieve."

We hugged. I felt a few tears go down my face. Jimmy and I grew up together and have through everything together.

Today is dads funeral. We are having it on the water. Everyone was there and Jimmy was going to talk.

"Lou was...Lou was a very stubborn, very dedicated man. When he made a decision, he would stay with it."

He looked up at the sky.

"We'll miss ya Louie!"

As we got off of the boat, everyone gave me and/or my mother a hug. As I was driving home, a drunk driver slammed into the side of my car. I was unconscious. They called Jimmy's company to come get me out. When they got there, Walsh said,

"That car looks familiar."

and Jimmy said

"That's Jules' car."

He ran over to me. I had a cut above my right eye and on my right cheek.

"Oh no. Jules, wake up Julie. Come on back, Julie. Get me the jaws of life! You'll be okay, Jules."

They got the door open and the paramedics started their job.
