Cutting $3 million out of the Reading Fire Bureau's budget next year will require major cutbacks in the way the city responds to fires and ambulance calls, a worried Fire Chief William H. Rehr III said Thursday.

The expected layoffs of 16 firefighters and seven paramedics would mean one of the three ambulances will go out of service, as well as several of the 11 firetrucks now operating around the clock, including three of the four ladder trucks, he said.

Fire Photographer Bob Stone passed away after returning from an incident in Amity Township. While Bob never picked up a handline or operated a rescue tool, he provided a great service to us by documenting our activities with his photos. Bob responded to a reported CO alarm and when returning to the station, started complaining of chest pain. Other members quickly came to his aid until the arrival of EMS which transported him to the hospital where he later passed to his medical condition he was experiencing.

Bob was a great friend and spent many hours at the station with us. He always talked about how he wanted to photgraph many of the pieces of apparatus in Lancaster County and asked me if I would escort him to many of the stations, now that will never happen. Yesterday before the end of my shift he mentioned about coming down this Sunday to start. The thing that I remember and thought about all day is the last thing I said to him was "I'll see you tomorrow". But now tomorrow will never come.

Godspeed my friend. Until we are together again. ]]> Line of Duty FF75 http://www.lancasterfire.com/infoboard/showthread.php?t=13316 <![CDATA[48" Vector Lightbar For Sale]]> http://www.lancasterfire.com/infoboard/showthread.php?t=13315&goto=newpost Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:17:58 GMT http://www.refton59fire.com/artman2/publish/Recent_Incidents/Items_For_Sale/Federal_Signal_Vector_Lightbar_For_Sale.shtml http://www.refton59fire.com/artman2/...For_Sale.shtml ]]> Warning Lights / Sirens emscomm513 http://www.lancasterfire.com/infoboard/showthread.php?t=13315 Misc Lights for Sale. http://www.lancasterfire.com/infoboard/showthread.php?t=13314&goto=newpost Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:07:09 GMT Hello Everyone, Here is a list of some lights that I have for sale.
