Our deepest condolences to our neighboring department and Assistant Chief Bartlett. Christopher attended many mutual aid trainings and was always present at the parades. He was an energetic and enthusiastic young man with a passion for the fire department. Thank you for bringing so much joy to each event. You will be missed.

The members of HFD express our deepest condolences to the family of one of our own. Assistant Chief Bartlett unexpectedly lost his son Christopher last night. Anyone who has spent time around our fire house would have likely met Christopher. Christopher was always smiling, asking about calls, monitoring the radio and enjoying life. Christopher was a part of HFD his entire life and he will be missed by all.
