With Thanksgiving around the corner, we would like to share a few facts about kitchen fires.
• The leading cause of fires in the kitchen is unattended cooking.

It's #NationalBagelDay & #FunFactFriday!
Here are some Fun Facts about this popular type of bread:
-Bagels are the only bread that are boiled before baked.
Unlike any other type of bread known to man, bagels are dipped in boiling water for approximately 3-5 minutes before going in the oven to get their golden exterior.
-Bagels went to space!
Astronaut Gregory Chamitoff brought 18 sesame bagels from a bakery in Montreal, Canada with him on his journey to space in 2008!
-The hole in the middle is NOT just decoration.
Although bagels are shaped to match their name, the hole in the middle serves a very important purpose. The hole increases the bagel’s surface area and allows for more crust formation and helps it cook faster.
Here at Servpro San Marcos-New Braunfels, when a Large Loss Water job requires emergency assistance, it's all hands on deck!

Deep in SERVPRO lore is the story of Little Billy. Little Billy, a new technician, arrived at a home for a deodorization job to neutralize cat odors. Little Billy didn't know the owner had 17 cats and had been on vacation for weeks. . . We're happy to say Little Billy had a decorated career here and to this day, he's never smelled anything like it. #WorldStorytellingDay #LittleBilly

Our crew handles all types of jobs with the goal of getting each effected area looking “Like it never even happened.”
It is with a very heavy heart that our company announces the passing of our employee and dear friend Dennis (Elson) Reese.
Born and raised in Elgin, Texas, Dennis recently celebrated his wedding anniversary with his bride of 25 years. A father to one son and one daughter, Dennis served in both the National Guard and Army. During his six years with the National Guard, he worked as a Motor Pool Sergeant then spent four years with the United States Army as a Hawk Missile Launcher Crewman.
Dennis also had the opportunity to travel the world. He spent time in both Paris and Switzerland and even resided in Germany for two years as part of his military orders. His favorite pastime was detailing vehicles.
Dennis had such a cheerful demeanor and positive attitude that never faltered. His respectful and kind personality was like a ray of sunshine on a rainy day. We will miss his sense of humor, his laugh, and his generous nature.
Rest in peace Dennis.
Your SERVPRO family will never forget you.
