Local Hero Francis Frees Family Trapped in Laundromat

Last Wednesday, our hero, Francis O., was walking past The Richmond area 123 Wash N Dry Laundromat when his attention caught the frantic cries of help from an out-of-town family locked in the laundromat. It was about 10:15 and the automatic doors had just closed, locking the family in for the rest of the night. Fearing overnight incarceration, the family produced nail files, screws, and other implements, and started removing the framework and electrical connections of the doors to extricate themselves.  Fortunately, Francis was quick-thinking and called the emergency number posted on the front door and the inside wall. I answered immediately and instructed them to push the green button and simultaneously push on the doors to open them.  The family was very thankful to Francis.


Last night Francis stopped by to meet me.     

THANK YOU, FRANCIS!
