Congratulations to Fire Station 11’s Senior Man John Adams on your much deserved retirement. Thanks for all that you’ve done for the men and women here at Company 11. And for your years of dedicated service to the Richmond Highway community. Enjoy a happy and healthy retirement. You’ve earned it! And remember, you’re always welcome back on the Highway! Coffee is hot and the kitchen table is open for conversation! Don’t be a stranger.
From everyone at Company 11, We hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Santa stopped in to visit the crews, but as is typical at the Penn Daw firehouse it was empty. Pretty much the norm for the busiest firehouse in Fairfax County.
A sad December so far for the Penn Daw/ FCFD Co.11 family. We have lost three legends in the past few weeks.
On December 6th, James Coffey passed away. James was a founding member of the Penn Daw VFD and a life member with over 40 years of service.
Captain Leonard “Buzzy”Jackson passed in December 7th. Buzzy was hired by the FRD in 1962 and issued badge #61. A mainstay around Co11 for many years.
Battalion Chief Chester “Chigger” Chinn passed on December 18th. Chigger was a former Penn Daw Volunteer and a former Marine. Hired in 1955 with the badge #29, he was promoted to Captain at Fire Station 11 in 1967. In 1971 he was again promoted, this time to Battalion Chief where he was moved to the north end of the county. He later returned to Route 1 and completed his career where he started. On the Highway.
All the men and women here at Company 11 would like to express our sincere condolences to the families of these three legendary members. Without their service and dedication, there would be no Pride in “Pride of the Highway”
Thank you gentlemen and may you rest peacefully.
Any Penn Daw Volunteers recognize this box? If this lock box was used by the PDVFD, how much were your dues? Were they paid at the monthly membership/business meeting?
