Show October 28, 1998 - The Springville Herald - Page Eighteen Quick thinking of youth saves lives Twelve-year-old Brodie Miller is a hero. His quick thinking saved the lives of his four young cousins Saturday. Brodie is an example of how kids learn from fire safety lessons taught in school and other places. He was tending his four cousins ages 1, 3, 7 and 9 when he suddenly sud-denly smelled smoke and found a fire in the back bedroom of the home. The youngest cousin was in the room, and the three-year-old was just coming out. Brodie grabbed the kids and got them all out of the house. Then he called 911. When the fire department arrived, all the children were standing across the street and safe. They said that Brodie did everything right and not only saved his own life but that of his four younger cousins! Congratulations, Brodie, for knowing what to do in a crisis. Brodie is the son of Brent and Camilla Miller of Mapleton. i Brodie Miller Entries sought for Christmas Lamb exhibit at museum The Springville Museum of Art extends a call for entries to students K-12 in the Alpine, Nebo and Provo School Districts for the annual Christmas Lamb Show.
