The Officers and Members of the Greenwich Fire Department extend our deepest condolences to the members of the Boston Fire Department, along with the family and friends of Firefighter Robert Kilduff, following his tragic Line of Duty Death.

Firefighter Kilduff was a proud third-generation firefighter and a former United States Marine who dedicated his life to service — both to his country and to his community. His commitment, courage, and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

We stand with our brothers and sisters in Boston during this incredibly difficult time and honor Firefighter Kilduff’s legacy of service and devotion to the fire service.

Rest easy, brother.

Earlier today, Engine 2 responded to 31 River Road for a unique rescue — a group of ducklings had become trapped in a catch basin. Our firefighters quickly went to work and safely reunited the ducklings with their mother.

A big thank you to Megan O’Brien for calling us so we could help!

Greenwich firefighters are proud to serve our community every day, not only during emergencies but also through public service calls like assisting residents and rescuing animals in need. 🐥🚒
