Memorial

This page is dedicated to the memory of all the members of the Bellmawr Fire Department who have passed on, and to the memory of firefighters everywhere who made the ultimate sacrifice.
This web page is still currently under construction and will be worked on more to better honor the memory of passed members of our Fire Department and all those who gave their lives in the line of duty.

Bellmawr Fire Department mourns three good men…..

On February 1 2008 Daniel Sullivan age 88 (Past Chief) of Bellmawr Fire & Rescue #1 passed away after a long illness. Chief Sullivan was a proactive leader in the fire service, and was a hands-on type individual. He served his community for over 60 years of dedicated service, and was extremely instrumental with the construction of the Firehouse located on Lewis Avenue.

On February 15,2008 Robert McNamee age 47 passed away un-expectedly. Bob who knew him, was a retired member and past fire officer, of Bellmawr Park Fire Company. He was very dedicated to the fire company, and would do anything for his family and his community.

On February 16, 2008 Richard Griffin age 78 passed away after a lengthy illness. Dick, as many knew him, was an associate member of Bellmawr Park Fire Company since 1988. Dick was also extremely dedicated to the community. Dick assisted the youth at the local little league for most of his life. On many evenings Dick could be found at the Bellmawr Little or at the firehouse on Essex Avenue.

The Department will keep all three members and their families in our prayers.

God Rest their souls

The Officers and Members of the Bellmawr Fire Department
