It continues to be a very sorrowful month. The following was as released to Jay Fire and Rescue members yesterday evening, 5/20/26:

"It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that Jay Fire Rescue announces the passing of our brother firefighter, Lance Lemieux.
Lance was a devoted member of our fire family who proudly served the community of Jay with courage, compassion, professionalism, and honor. He stood beside his fellow firefighters with unwavering dedication and commitment, and his service and brotherhood will never be forgotten.
Throughout his battle, Lance showed tremendous strength, determination, and faith. Even during the most difficult times, he continued to inspire those around him with his resilience, positive spirit, and love for his family, friends, community, and the fire service.
His passing leaves a tremendous void within our department, our community, and the Franklin County fire service family.
Please keep Lance’s family, friends, and all members of Jay Fire Rescue in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
Additional information regarding services and arrangements will be shared as they become available.
Rest easy, Brother Lance. Your watch on earth has ended, but your legacy, dedication, and spirit will forever remain a part of Jay Fire Rescue.
“Firefighters never die, they just burn forever in the hearts of the people they saved.”
Rest in peace, Brother Lance."

Thanks for the inspiration to keep going and keep being as mentally and physically strong as possible even when your own body is fighting you. Thanks also for the true devotion to family and fire service with a gentle, positive attitude and willingness to participate in all possible. Thanks for showing the importance of embracing every day as fully as possible. We honor and salute you, Sir.
