As we prepare to say goodbye to our Brother Tyler Kreiter the Green Bay Area Firefighters Honor Guard are keeping Tyler and his family in our thoughts and prayers. Rest easy Tyler, thank you for the years of friendship and laughter.

Our hearts are heavy, as we announce the Line of Duty Death of one of our very own. Engineer/Paramedic Tyler Kreiter passed away Thursday, December 12th, 2024 at the age of 43 years old. Tyler truly was one of a kind, and his devotion to his family and community could not be matched. A quote from our department's post stated "Tyler exemplified what it means to be a Green Bay Metro Firefighter. The courage and determination he displayed in the performance of his duties were outmatched only by his spirit in his fight against cancer." We could not agree more with this statement. As a second family, we have spent the last 3 years by his side watching his heroic battle against cancer. We have supported him and his amazing family in every way possible, and we know that he fought for everyone until the very end. Please keep Engineer Tyler Kreiter and his family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this tough and trying time. Rest easy Brother, we will take it from here...
