North Greece Fire Department holds Dedication Ceremony for First Responder Memorial

The dedication for the North Greece First Responder Memorial was held on Saturday, October 26. The attendees were addressed by Fire Chief Battaglia, Fire Chaplin Gene Preston, Representative Josh Jensen and program chair FF Al Camp.

Numerous community donors supported this memorial effort, and the memorial will serve as a lasting tribute to those who sacrificed much, with some paying the ultimate sacrifice in service of others in their time of need.

The North Greece Fire Department is grateful for all contributors and the memorial has proven to be a community effort and will continue to do so as the personalized brick program will continue to be offered as the pathway is extended.
