The flag at Station One is currently at half-mast in memory of Retired Captain Kjell Pedersen. Kjell joined the Kenora Fire Department in 1964 before becoming a KPFFA member in 1971 as a full-time fire fighter. He would retire in March 2000 after serving his community for over 35 years. We thank Retired Captain Pedersen for his service and send our condolences to his wife, daughters, son and his grandchildren.
