Last month, the Northshore Fire Department Board of Commissioners recognized Joe and Tim Uhrich, owners of the Towne Center Hardware of Lake Forest Park, for their donation of smoke alarms for the Northshore Fire Department’s Smoke Alarm Program. The program emphasizes the importance of the proper installation and maintenance of smoke alarms in residential occupancies. “We really want to be part of the community and we are glad that we can help the fire department make the community safer,” Joe said. The donation furthers the Northshore Fire Department’s mission to protect the health, life and property of the community.
