πŸš’ CONGRATULATIONS, FIREFIGHTER TIM COLEMAN! πŸš’

Today we celebrate 25 years of dedicated service to the fire service by Firefighter Tim Coleman.

For a quarter of a century, Tim has answered the call, stood shoulder-to-shoulder with his brothers and sisters, and committed himself to serving those in their time of greatest need.

25 years. Countless calls. One incredible commitment to the job.

Tim, thank you for your dedication, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to the fire service and the people we serve. Your years of service have made a difference, and your brothers and sisters are proud to call you one of our own.

Congratulations on 25 years of service, Tim! πŸ”₯πŸ‘Š

πŸ”₯ WE WILL NEVER FORGET πŸ”₯

This past weekend, several members of IAFF Local 1352 made the trip to Colorado Springs to stand shoulder to shoulder with firefighters from across the United States and Canada at the IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial.

We were there for one reason: to honor our brother, Chief Bill Mack.

Chief Mack’s name was added to the Memorial Wall alongside 287 other fallen firefighters, including four additional firefighters from the Puget Sound region.

Hundreds of firefighters gathered togetherβ€”not just as departments, locals, or unions, but as one fire service family.

There were stories shared about the brothers and sisters who came before us. There were handshakes, embraces, laughter, and plenty of tears. There were memories that reminded us of who they were beyond the uniform and the badge.

And there was a powerful reminder of what the fire service brotherhood truly means:

We take care of our own.

When one of us falls, we don't forget them.
When a brother or sister is hurting, we stand beside them.
And when their name is called, we answer.

Chief Mack may no longer be riding the rig, walking into the station, or standing beside his crewβ€”but his name now stands permanently among the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice.

His brothers and sisters will carry that name forward.

We remember his service.
We honor his sacrifice.
We carry his legacy.

From the firehouses of the Puget Sound to the Memorial Wall in Colorado Springs, Chief Mack will always be one of our own.

Rest easy, Chief. We've got it from here.

πŸš’ Never forgotten. Never alone. Never left behind.

Today, we honor the working men and women who keep our communities moving forward. Labor Day is more than a day offβ€”it’s a reminder of the strength, dignity, and solidarity of working people.

Different roles. Same mission. A safer tomorrow.

Today, IAFF Local 1352 proudly recognizes the contributions of workers everywhere and the generations of organized labor who fought for the rights, protections, and opportunities we benefit from today.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ HAPPY LABOR

This past weekend, Local 1352 Valley Professional Firefighters, Valley Regional Fire Authority, friends, and family came together to celebrate the life of David Cook and honor a life dedicated to serving others.

For 35 years, Dave proudly served in the fire service. Throughout those years, he built friendships, shared countless calls and memories, and became part of a brotherhood that extends far beyond the firehouse. His impact reached well beyond the uniform, and the stories shared this weekend were a reminder of just how many lives he touched.

While we gathered with heavy hearts, we also gathered with gratitudeβ€”for the time we had with Dave, for the memories he left us, and for the example he set through a lifetime of service and dedication.

Dave, your watch is over. The alarm has sounded for the last time, but your legacy will live on in the people you served, the brothers and sisters you worked alongside, and the memories you left behind.

Rest easy, Brother.
We’ll take it from here. πŸš’β€οΈ
