Congratulations Hollywood on your retirement! We will welcome you back at Station 3 at any time!

Hanover Fire-EMS recognizes Firefighter Chris Hollins as he retires on June 1, 2026, after more than 46 years of service to Hanover County.

Chris began his fire service in 1980 with Company 3 Eastern Hanover Volunteer Fire Department, where he held many offices, including serving as Chief, and contributed to numerous committees, such as training and apparatus. He was hired by Hanover Fire-EMS on May 1, 2011, and served at Stations 6, 3, and 12, as well as a member of the Technical Rescue Team and Water Rescue Team.

Over more than four decades, he has met and worked with many people he is proud to call friends and family, both in the volunteer and career ranks. As Chris retires from Hanover Fire-EMS, he returns to the family business full-time.

Please join us in thanking FF Chris Hollins for his many years of service to Hanover County and wishing him well in this next chapter.
