Volunteer Spotlight: Firefighter Travaras Mallory

This month, we are proud to recognize Firefighter Travaras Mallory, better known as “Peanut” around the fire station, for his dedication to the Columbiana Fire Department and the citizens we serve.

His can-do work ethic is second to none, and his commitment to serving others is evident in everything he does.

How long have you been a volunteer firefighter? “I have been a volunteer since 2020 with Columbiana.”

What is your favorite part of being a volunteer? “Helping others in their time of need.”

What do you do for a career? “I work for a medical company as a Compliance Safety Specialist.”

What are your hobbies, and how do you balance family life? “My hobbies consist of alone time on my motorcycle riding, spending time with my family, and being involved at our church.”

What his fellow firefighters and officers have to say:

“Travaras has been a great asset to Columbiana Fire since joining. He is very dedicated to the fire department as well as to the citizens of Columbiana. He is an extremely hard worker and does anything asked of him. Most of the time, he does it before he's asked. If he sees a need, then he makes sure the need is addressed. His dedication to the department shows in the certifications that he has acquired from the Alabama Fire College and IFSAC.”

Another fellow firefighter shared:

“Travaras's work ethic is very strong. He doesn't have any problem following directions, and if nothing has been assigned to him, he finds something to do to keep the trucks in operating order. He's very knowledgeable and works well with others. He loves interacting with the public. If you needed a worker, he's the ideal candidate.”

So, if you pass by the fire station on a Saturday morning, you're likely to see Firefighter Mallory out front checking off the fire trucks and shining them up.

Give him a honk when you see him!

Thank you, Firefighter Mallory, for setting an example of what a strong work ethic looks like and for your continued dedication to the Columbiana Fire Department and the people we serve.
