It is with deep sadness that the Owasco Fire Department announces the passing of Fire Police Lieutenant Stephen "Smitty" Smith.

Lieutenant Smith joined our membership in 1970, dedicating an incredible 55 years of faithful service to our department and the community. Smitty responded to several thousand emergencies in our community in his time with us.

Beyond his dedication to public safety, Smitty was known for the constant smile on his face and the genuine joy he found in being surrounded by his many friends and brothers and sisters in the fire service.

His devotion to the Owasco community extended well beyond the fire department. Smitty spent years working for the Owasco Highway Department. Following his retirement, he continued to serve his neighbors part-time, caring for the town’s playground and serving as a beloved crossing guard for Owasco Elementary School.

Details regarding the services and department honors will be shared as soon as they are finalized. We ask that you keep Smitty’s family and friends in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Earlier today, the Owasco Fire Department and mutual aid partners responded to a reported structure fire near Owasco Elementary School.
Upon arrival, crews located a vegetation fire that had extended onto a residential porch. Firefighters quickly contained and extinguished the fire, preventing further damage to the home.
The cause was determined to be accidental, sparked by a propane torch being used for w**d control.

⚠️ Propane Torch Safety Tips
If you use a torch for w**d management, please keep these critical safety precautions in mind:

Watch the Perimeter: Keep open flames well away from dry plants, mulch, wooden fences, porches, and buildings.

Stay Prepared: Always have a charged garden hose or a fire extinguisher within arm's reach before you start.

Do a Final Check: Wet down the treated area when finished to ensure no hidden embers are smoldering in the soil or roots.
