Texas fires refine Loree Foreman's priorities

摘要

Loree Foreman has been involved in the pressure washing industry for over 40 years, currently serving as general manager for Delco Cleaning Systems in Fort Worth. She is a founding member of PWNA, and currently serves on the CETA Board of Directors. On April 9th, however, her perspective on life drastically changed. Loree lives in a small house on the outskirts of Granbury, Texas, a "beautiful town built on gorgeous Lake Granbury," located about 50 miles from the Ft. Worth area. On April 9, news broke of wildfires and high winds in her community and the smoke was so dense that drivers on the nearby highway could not see. Following her long commute home, Loree was greeted by fire trucks and law enforcement who would not allow her to enter her neighborhood. "Smoke was billowing from down the street about two blocks away, which ironically was right where my house is," she explains.
