Linda Heinen of Sauk Rapids, mother of firefighter Mark Heinen, enjoys breakfast with her grandchildren at the annual Sartell-LeSauk Fire Department Waffle-Breakfast fundraiser April 23 at St. Francis Xavier School. The children are (from left to right) Breanna Heinen, her sister Cassidy and brother Michael, all of Sartell. With 540 people served, the turnout was larger than expected and was over 200 more than last year, said Sartell-LeSauk Fire Chief Jim Sattler. The money raised will go toward equipment, recruitment and retention of firefighters, and the open house the department has every year during fire prevention week in October.
