Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rice family, Hackensack Fire Department, and Paramus Fire Department today. Rest in Peace Lieutenant Timothy Rice. We'll take it from here.
On this Memorial Day, we continue to remember all those that made the ultimate sacrifice.
Every year, the REFD has a tradition of placing flags on the graves of the members who have passed away. This is done the weekend prior to Memorial Day. Thank you to all the members who gave their time to help continue the tradition.
