NANTUCKET, Mass. (AP) – President Joe Biden has delivered pumpkin pies to Massachusetts firefighters for Thanksgiving.

The president, first lady Jill Biden and their nearly 3-year-old grandson Beau visited with emergency personnel at fire department headquarters on Nantucket island.

Earlier in the day, Biden expressed his appreciation for those who risk their lives to help others when he spoke by telephone to the hosts of NBC’s broadcast of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York.

He later spoke on the phone with U.S. service members who are away from their families for the holiday.

Biden has a more than 40-year tradition of spending Thanksgiving on the Massachusetts island.
