He and his wife had just parked around the corner from their own house, when they got a call from one of his daughters: The house next door is on fire! He went to investigate. That39。s when he saw two women and a girl panicstricken on their doorway. The baby39。s in there! one of the women cried. Though the fire department had been called, Surrell, then 64, instinctively ran inside. The baby was 8yearold Tiara, the woman39。s granddaughter.

After a few minutes in the smokefilled house, he withdrew outside to catch his breath. Where is Tiara? he asked desperately. The second floor, The woman shouted back. Taking a deep breath, he went in a second time. The darkness was overwhelming. Yet because the house had a similar design to his, Surrell found the stairs and made it to the second floor. He was already out of breath. Then a soft but distinct moan appeared. He crawled toward the sound, feeling around for any sign of the girl. Finally, he touched something. A shoe, then an ankle. He pulled Tiara into his arms. Turning, he fought through the smoke and ran blindly into the blackness. The next thing he knew, he was at the front door, then outside. Surrell woke up in the hospital a couple of days later, having suffered severe burns. Tiara was released from the hospital after a few days. It39。s a small price to pay, Surrell says.
