RIP FF Jared Lloyd

We join with our brothers and sisters from the Spring Valley NY Fire Department in mourning the line of duty death of Firefighter Jared Lloyd.

Firefighter Lloyd, a 15-year veteran of the Spring Valley volunteer FD, lost his life on March 23, 2021 while fighting a fire under extremely dangerous conditions at the Evergreen Court Home For Adults, located in Rockland County NY.

While firefighters saved many lives, sadly, 1 civilian resident of the facility perished. In addition, 2 firefighters were injured fighting the fire.

We offer our condolences to the families of those that died and a fast and complete recovery to those that were injured.

The Wantagh Fire Department is currently conducting their annual Fund Drive. You should have received a color flyer mailed to your home or business. We appreciate the support from those of you who have already responded and ask those considering their donation to be as generous as you can. Due to Covid-19 safety concerns we were not allowed to do our “walk” last year and we will likely not be doing so this year. Keeping us all safe and healthy continues to be our priority.

The annual Fund Drive helps us to provide scholarships for deserving students within the community and support local school children in their fundraising efforts as well. It also allows us to maintain membership in various associations which help keep our membership up to date in the latest legal, training and continuing education efforts so that we can continue to provide the finest services to our community.

Please consider donating through the mail or by using the “donate now” tab on our website, which is www.wantaghfd.com Both of these methods are “contact-free” and in consideration of your health and ours. As part of our commitment to our residents we ask that you use the tear off portion of the Fund Drive flyer or “contact us” tab on the website to notify us of any special concerns that may exist at your home; ie: oxygen in use, handicapped or elderly residents, etc.

Please feel free to visit our website or follow us on Facebook or Twitter to learn more about your Volunteer Fire Department. As always, we thank you for your support and we are always here when you need us.
