Why did you join the fire department? |
I have been around the fire service my entire life. My dad joined the Reiffton Fire Company in 1978 and got me into the fire service right away. When I turned 14, I became a Junior Firefighter at the Reiffton Fire Company and progressed through the ranks during my career at Reiffton and the Exeter Township Volunteer Fire Department. |

What do you like best about being part of the fire department? |
The best part of being a part of the Exeter Township Volunteer Fire Department is getting to work with so many great people and organizations. The ETVFD members are like family to me and they are always there when I need something, either within the fire department or personally. The Exeter community is very supportive of the fire department, and it is wonderful to get out and do fire prevention activities or community events with the public. |
