With a heavy heart and profound sadness, the Officers & Members of Rescue Co.4 regret to announce that Ex-Chief Timothy Courtney has answered his last alarm. Tim’s life revolved around his family and his selfless dedication to service of his fellow neighbor. Tim joined the Levittown FD in 1962 when he was 18 years old, following in his father’s footsteps. He would take a leave of absence to bravely serve his country when he enlisted in the US Army in 1962. When his service to the Army ended, Tim returned to Levittown and resumed serving with Rescue Co. 4 and the department. He would quickly rise through the ranks and would be elected to Captain of Rescue Co.4 from 1974 to 1976. In 1980 Tim would be elected 3rd Deputy Chief. After serving through the ranks of 2nd, and 1st Deputy Chief, Tim would then be elected Chief of Department from 1986-1987. Even though Tim had achieved the highest ranks in Rescue Co. 4 and the department, he would continue to serve the Levittown Community when he was elected Commissioner of the Levittown Fire District in 1988. This was a position he would hold for 30 years, being re-elected 6 times until 2017. Tim’s professional life was also a career of service, working for the Nassau County Sheriff’s Dept. as a corrections officer from 1969-2000, retiring as a Sergeant. Some of Tim’s other accomplishments include Past President of the Nassau County Association of Fire Districts and serving on the NY State Arson Board. A true maverick in the Levittown Community, his dedication and commitment to duty would never falter. At 63.75 years of service, Tim is the longest serving member of the Levittown Fire Department & Rescue Co. 4. A true family man, gentleman and a hero to his family, community and country. A loving husband to Victoria, and loving father to Tim and Maureen.
Tim, you have laid you’re last hose, climbed you’re last ladder, and given aid to you’re last patient. We’ll take it from here. May Vicki be waiting to embrace you. RIP Ex-Chief Tim Courtney, you will be forever missed, but never forgotten. As you would say “See you at the big one”.
