Egelston Township Fire Department

We extend our sincere condolences to the friends, family, and the entire Muskegon Charter Township Fire Department on the passing of Captain Bryan Fethke. Not only did Captain Fethke serve the residents of Muskegon Township throughout his career, you could also find him serving the residents of Egelston Township through our Mutal Aid partnerships and simply as the township in which he called Home.

The members of our Department are deeply sadden as Captain Fethke was a friend, mentor, and leader to all of us. He truly left the Fire Service better than when he found it.

Captain Fethke, Thank you for your dedication, commitment, and friendship. You will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

To our Brothers and Sisters of the Muskegon Charter Township Fire Department we along with multiple other departments in which Captain Fethke made a mark on share your grief. We are here to support you with whatever you need.

May you Rest Easy Captain and watch over us all.
