We surprise two young brothers who jumped into action as a fire spread quickly outside their home

EastIdahoNews.com is partnering with Ashley and Ashley Outlet of Idaho Falls to honor people in our community for Feel Good Friday. Every week, we surprise someone deserving of special recognition.
We received an email a few months ago about two brothers who jumped into action when a fire started outside their home. The message said:
Two boys went above and beyond today. They assisted in putting out a fire that decided to go awry. Their names are Jensen and Charles in Ririe. The property belongs to their hard-of-sight grandmother. When Central Fire Department showed up, Jensen was able to help them find the path down to where the fire was. They grabbed shovels and hoses and helped prevent the fire from spreading to nearby homes and buildings. This was something a 9 and 11 year old normally wouldn’t face. They sure went above and beyond to help keep it back from our field and there uncle’s house.
We tracked down Jensen and Charles at school and surprised them for Feel Good Friday. Check out the video in the video player above!
Feel Good Friday is sponsored by Ashley and Ashley Outlet in Idaho Falls, where we are committed to being your trusted partner and style leader for the home. Ashley also seeks to inspire the love of home and enrich others' lives.
