Yesterday we had the honor of participating in the funeral of another Crosby Firefighter, Ken Moe.

Kenny was known for his service to others through volunteering, the military and for 20 years on the Crosby Fire Department.

Legacy is a significant part of the fire service and Ken Moe certainly upheld that. Kenny had two nephews, a great nephew and a great niece serve on CFD as well as several other family members serving in military and fire capacities throughout the country.

Pictured here you will see a set of Kenny’s gear that upon his retirement, his nephew wore while it remained in service.

Thank you Kenny for your time with us. Rest in Peace brother, we have got it from here.

Please be responsible today with heat sources. We have a Red Flag Warning and while we are ready to respond, we hope we don’t have to!

Fire is extremely destructive, even grass/brush fires. It can be shocking how fast wildland fire moves and can quickly turn into something much bigger. Protect yourself and your neighbors today.
