The members and families of the Hampton Township Volunteer Fire Department would like to express our heartfelt condolences to the Kirsopp family following the passing of our friend and fellow first-responder, Sgt. Robert Kirsopp.
Many of our members knew Rob personally and not just when Fire and Police came together as the result of a dispatched event. Rob was a larger-than-life personality, the consummate professional who always stepped up to provide strong leadership but who was also ready with an appropriately timed quip, a great smile and laugh.
At a recent training session, Rob instructed our department’s volunteers about Fire and Police communication and support tactics at complex incidents. His insight, knowledge and caring approach will be a lasting legacy among all first responders in Hampton.
We will forever remember his unwavering dedication to service and his vibrant spirit that have left an indelible mark on our hearts and the community of Hampton.
