It is with a heavy heart that I share the passing of Markle Fire Cadet, Adlee Scheerer. Adlee was not only an incredible firefighter, but also a genuinely kind and uplifting person. He brought light into every room with his smile and warm presence. Adlee cared deeply for his community and his friends, always offering strength, laughter, and a listening ear. Though his life was taken far too soon, the joy he shared and the lives he touched will never be forgotten. We remember him for his courage, his heart, and that unforgettable smile. Rest easy brother, we will take it from here.

I ask you keep Adlee’s family and friends in your prayers as well as the men and women of Markle Fire Department.
