Citrus Heights Boy With Autism Gets Firetruck Birthday Surprise
By kncipat on December 16, 2019
Stevie Waters didn’t speak a word until he was 5. Diagnosed with autism at an early age Stevie has had one fascination his entire life: firetrucks. For his 18th birthday Stevie’s brother contacted Sac Metro Fire and told them about his brother. They cooked up an amazing surprise. Take a look a Stevie’s reaction! He got to use some of the equipment, tour the firetruck and even got a ride along.
Through a lot of hard work and intense tutoring Stevie is a senior at Del Campo High School. He’s taking mainstream classes and is in a fire tech program. His dream is to someday be a fire fighter. Thanks to Sac Metro Fire he’s now one step closer. Happy Birthday Stevie! And to Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District, thank you for being the good.
