The Abington Fire Department and Abington Firefighters Local 2080 regret to announce the death of Retired Deputy Chief of Department D. Leo Donovan at the age of 89.

After being appointed as a Call Firefighter in 1960, Leo was hired as a Permanent Firefighter in 1962, moving through the ranks within the Department throughout his career. He retired as a Deputy Chief in 1992 after a distinguished 32 year career serving his community.

Deputy Chief Donovan was also a founding member of Abington Firefighters Local 2080, as noted on the original Union Charter, which is proudly displayed in our Headquarters Station.

We stand with the Donovan family as they grieve their loss and we will continue to carry the legacy Leo left behind.

25 years it's been since 343 of our brothers and sisters responded to their last alarm. They had no idea what their tour of duty would bring when they kissed their families goodbye that morning, not knowing it would be the last time. When the call came in, they did the only thing they knew they had to do....their job.

Pictured is FDNY 118 Truck responding to the WTC on this day 25 years ago. They had time to think about their situation, and what they were about to encounter, probably all thinking the same thing. But they went anyway.

We honor them every day by getting on the rig and doing the same thing....our job. Today, and every day, we honor these 343 brothers and sisters, along with the thousands of other Americans who died on that day and since that day due to related illnesses.
