Story

Mike referred to firefighters as “everyday heroes”. He loved everything about being a firefighter, the camaraderie in the hall, the adventure, the traditions, and the bravery required of those who do it. He respected those who came before and after him. His quick wit, sense of humour and storytelling skills continued to entertain at the hall, long after his retirement.
