Spreading some Birthday Cheer in Fire District 2

Want to give a shout out to Red Line Fabrication & Machine LLC for the excellent job done on fabrication and mounting of all the equipment and tools on our new Rescue 41. The fact that the truck remained at the station the whole time was a big advantage.

Sorry we haven’t posted for a while, we have been busy at work completing this project. I’d like to thank Little Rocky Hill Volunteer Fire Company for choosing Red Line Fabrication to outfit their new rescue. I have to say it was a pleasure working with you and your team.

Last night at 9:47 stations 31 (Franklin park) and @middlebushfire were dispatched for a large fire. Shortly after a district dispatched was put out advising there was a well involved structure fire. Upon arrival units found a fully involved pool house fire. Units began working on exposure protection and controlling the fire. Engine 41s crew worked on fire extinguishment and overhaul. Crews were in location until approximately 3am. Thank you to @cvfc_1 @nbvfd3 @svfrc1 for the continued help during our fires. As always we appreciate the efforts put in by the district and our mutual companies. Pic credits to @centraljerseyfirebuffs

Rest in Peace brother

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the Line of Duty Death of FF Israel “Nudge” Tolentino, 33 years old. FF Tolentino courageously fought this illness but succumbed to complications from the COVID-19.

He leaves behind his wife Maria and two children, daughter age 9 and son age 7. He joined the Passaic Fire Department on December 10, 2018 fulfilling his lifelong dream of becoming a Firefighter and serving others. FF Tolentino also served as an EMT on his days off and volunteered for OEM.

Israel was a great Firefighter, person, husband, son and Father. We ask for your thoughts and prayers for him and his family.

Today, May 4th, we celebrate International Firefighters Day. Today we take the time to remember all of those who take the time out of every day to drop what they are doing, leave their families and respond to a strangers home in their time in need. It is a day where past and current Firefighters are thanked and remembered for all of their contributions and sacrifices for their community. Thank you to our brothers and sisters for their service.

“The role of a firefighter in today’s society – be it urban, rural, natural environment, volunteer, career, industrial, defence force, aviation, motor sport, or other is one of dedication, commitment and sacrifice – no matter what country we reside and work in. In the fire service we fight together against one common enemy – fire – no matter what country we come from, what uniform we wear or what language we speak.”
– Lt JJ Edmondson, 1999
