Sullivan County Volunteer Firefighter's Association

08/03/2026

The Officers and Members of the Sullivan County Volunteer Firefighters Association mourn the passing of our Past President, Past Chief Nelson "Nellie" Durland.

Chief Durland dedicated 69 years of faithful service to the Hurleyville Fire Department and devoted his life to the volunteer fire service. As a Past President of both the Sullivan County Volunteer Firefighters Association and the Hudson Valley Volunteer Firefighters Association, he was a respected leader, mentor, and friend whose commitment to the fire service will never be forgotten. His legacy will continue to inspire firefighters for generations to come.

We extend our deepest sympathies to his wife, Joan, his son Eric, his family, and the Officers and Members of the Hurleyville Fire Department.

Calling hours will be held on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Colonial Memorial Funeral Home, 396 State Route 52, Woodbourne. Masonic Services will begin at 7:00 p.m., immediately followed by Firematic Services. Funeral Services will be held on Thursday, August 6, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at Liberty Presbyterian Church, with an interment to follow at Hurleyville Cemetery.

Chief, your final alarm has sounded. Your watch is complete. May you rest in peace, and may your legacy of service continue to guide those who answer the call.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the residents of Livingston Manor and the Board of Fire Commissioners for the generous funding and support that made the purchase of our new 3M Scott Air-Pak XD SCBAs possible.

These new air packs are a vital upgrade to our equipment and will greatly enhance the safety, effectiveness, and confidence of our firefighters while operating in hazardous environments. Your continued commitment to providing modern, reliable equipment demonstrates a strong dedication to the safety of both our firefighters and the community we proudly serve.

We truly appreciate your ongoing support and investment in our department.
