It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Deputy Chief Scott Durfee, who died this morning surrounded by those who loved him.

Deputy Chief Scott Durfee dedicated his life to serving God, his family, our community, and the fire service. Over the course of his career, he was more than a leader — he was a mentor, a teacher, and a brother to the firefighters, paramedics, EMTs, and all members of our department who had the privilege of serving beside him. His faith, leadership, and commitment to others left a lasting impact that will never be forgotten.

We ask that you keep his family, friends, and our entire fire department family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Funeral arrangements and opportunities to honor Deputy Chief Scott Durfee will be shared as they become available.

Rest easy, Chief. We have the watch from here.
