At Longview Fire, our department is family—and that includes our children. Today, we want to share an inspiring story about Katelyn Daniel, the daughter of one of our Battalion Chiefs.

At just 24 years old, on the exact same day she was accepted into nursing school, Katelyn was diagnosed with stage 3 triple-negative breast cancer. She bravely put her life on hold for a year to fight the disease, and her resilience is nothing short of amazing.

Fast forward to today: Katelyn is now a 26-year-old Registered Nurse living just down the road in Kilgore. She has overcome unimaginable hurdles, is engaged to be married, is expecting a baby girl, and is working toward becoming an oncology nurse at Texas Oncology to help others fighting the same battle.

We are so incredibly proud of Katelyn and the strength she has shown. She is a true fighter and an inspiration to our entire Longview Fire family! ❤️🚒

The same day that Katelyn Daniel was accepted into nursing school, the 24-year-old was diagnosed with stage 3, triple-negative breast cancer. “I never knew how common cancer was in younger people until I was diagnosed,” says Daniel, now a 26-year-old R.N. who lives in Kilgore, Texas. Although she had to put her life on hold for a year, she is now engaged to be married and expecting a baby girl — and she hopes to one day become an oncology nurse at Texas Oncology.

Did you know one of Longview’s historic fire stations dates back to 1936?

In 1935, voters approved bonds to fund a new City Hall and fire stations, including one on Mobberly Avenue, south of Young Street in the Idylwood Subdivision.

Built in the Tudor style, the station features brick and stucco walls, a slate roof, copper accents, and a courtyard. C.S. Lambie & Co., also known for constructing the Gregg County Courthouse, served as the contractor, with N.L. Peters as the architect.

A little piece of Longview’s history worth remembering!
