It is with heavy hearts that the Ceres Volunteer Fire Department announces the passing of our brother, Larry Tibbs #132.

Larry served our department and community with dedication for many years and, up until recent years, proudly served as Fire Chief. His leadership, commitment to the fire service, and love for helping others left a lasting impact on our department and the Ceres community.

Larry was also known for his great sense of humor, always bringing laughter and light to the firehouse. His service, leadership, and friendship will never be forgotten. Please keep Larry’s family, friends, and our department members in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
