A sad day for all.
Vale!

Today marks six years since Andrew and Geoff were taken from us while doing what they loved and believed in, fire fighting at the Green Wattle Creek Fire on the evening of 19 December 2019.

Their loss is felt just as deeply now as it was then. Their courage, mateship, and dedication remain part of who we are and how we serve.

In recent times, the firefighting community has once again shown its strength, standing beside one another with compassion, generosity, and quiet support when it matters most. That shared bond continues to carry families, friends, and brigades through the hardest moments.

Please continue to check in, lend a hand, and look after one another.

Always remembered.
Miss you boys. 💙❤️
