​Fire Station #4 03.08.2019

How does one define brotherhood? It is the quality or state of being brothers. It can also be called a fellowship or an alliance. These attributes describe the outstanding men at station #4. A common theme that runs deep among the fire stations is that of family, and this was evident today. Within this close-knit environment, the bonds of friendship, brotherhood and trust are built strong and unwavering. They put their lives into each other's hands on a daily basis. They literally walk through fire together and come out stronger for it.

It was our deepest honor to acknowledge their bravery, courage and devotion to duty and to each other. These are men who do not seek accolades, fame or money. They do it because they feel called into this field of service. Each one of them could be called a hero for what they do; but more than that, they are heroes because of who they are. They are husbands, fathers, grandfathers, brothers and sons. They give 100% of themselves to each other and to the community they serve and protect asking for nothing in return. If you ask the crew of station #4, they will say they're just doing their job and are not heroes.  But to their families and to the thousands they have helped over the years, they will always be our heroes!
