They do everything together

NATCHEZ, Miss. (AP) - June 28, 2010

Billy Ray and April Lowery are both volunteer firefighters in Mississippi.

April says they do everything together -- including helping other people.

But fire-fighting takes a toll on their relationship.

They tell a local paper that a romantic dinner has to be abandoned if they need to answer a fire call.

They also have to scramble to arrange care for their kids, ages 7 to 12.

Sometimes the kids go along and stay in the truck.

But the Lowerys say they're setting an example of service for their children.
