Bob and Matthew in a word... Courageous
Bob and Matthew is a Hometown Hero because...
Bob, an off-duty police officer, was alerted by his son, Matthew, that their neighbor's house was on fire. As he called 911 and talked to the dispatcher, he ran across the street and pulled the 61-year-old victim from the burning house.
