Thank you to those who have served and continue to serve

Today is National Peace Officer Memorial Day. Please join us in remembering and paying tribute to the peace officers who have died or been disabled in the line of duty. We would like to recognize members of the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office who have been assigned to us over the years. While their assignment has been an ancillary duty, their contribution to our organization has been invaluable. This photo is of some of those individuals. Our sincere thanks to those past and present law enforcement professionals - Sheriff Heino, Sheriff Curry, Deputies Sine, Childers, Harrison, Salois, Roberts, Duke, Nuno, Weathersbee, Wise, Grant and the Claridge brothers.

Happy Mothers Day to our moms! 🌻

Happy Mother’s Day to the women who answer two callings: motherhood and the fire service.

To the moms who spend sleepless nights with their children, then still show up ready to serve their community.

To the moms who still find time to train, work out, and stay prepared while giving their families their very best.

You carry the weight of responsibility at home and on the job with a strength that often goes unseen. You comfort others in their hardest moments while still pouring love, patience, and guidance into your own family.

You miss holidays and birthdays, working long shifts, yet your family still knows they are loved because they see it in your actions every single day.

Your children grow up watching hard work, courage, discipline, compassion, and service modeled right in front of them. That example will stay with them forever.

Today, we celebrate the women who protect both their homes and their communities. The moms who wear the uniform carry the responsibility and still somehow find the strength to keep showing up for everyone around them.

You are appreciated, respected, and deeply valued.

“God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.”

— Psalm 46:5

Happy Mother’s Day to all the firefighter moms out there!

Incredibly heartbreaking to hear about the loss of Homey and Ben. We hold all of the fire departments who knew these two men in our thoughts and prayers.

This has been an incredibly difficult week for our brothers and sisters at the South Kalispell Fire Department.

The loss of both Ben Brown and Jim Holm "Homey" is devastating-not onlv to their department, but to our entire community and the fire service family as a whole. Their dedication, service, and commitment to helping others will never be forgotten, and their absence will be felt for many vears to come

We stand with South Kalispell Fire Department and Montana DNRC as well as with the families, friends, and fellow firefighters who are grieving these unimaginable losses. Please know that you are not alone-our thoughts, prayers, and support are with you in every way possible.

Ben and Jim, vour sacrifice and service will forever be honored. The lives vou touched and the people you helped will carry your legacy forward. Rest easy, brothers. Your watch has ended, but your memory will live on.
