Firefighter Darius “Momo” Carey has been a strong and dedicated part of our department and community for many years. He has selflessly given his time, heart, and service to help others.

Now, it’s our turn to give back and show him the same love and support he has given to our community. We are asking everyone to come out, support, and lend a helping hand.

Our department sends our thoughts and prayers to the family and co workers.

It is with a very heavy heart that we share the passing of Firefighter Mason Fercovic-Ortegel, who tragically died in an off-duty drowning incident at Lake Anna. Mason was only 24 years old.

This is a heartbreaking loss for Mason’s family, friends, coworkers, and our entire FREM family. We ask that you keep his family and everyone who knew and loved Mason in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Our department will stand beside Mason’s family and our members in the days ahead. We will do everything we can to support them, care for one another, and honor Mason and his service to our community.

Please continue to lift up Mason’s family, friends, and fellow department members.

Rest easy, Mason. You will not be forgotten.
