It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Fire Commissioner Frances Stanley.

In her more than fifty years of service to the fire district, Commissioner Stanley constantly supported our community and department. Many of our members will recall a quiet conversation with her before a board meeting, her quick check-ins on the duty crew at the kitchen table, or her almost guaranteed appearance of walking in the annual Memorial Day parade. During her unprecedented tenure on the board, Mrs. Stanley helped shape the department's direction into its current multi-mission agency for more than half of our District’s existence.

To say that Mrs. Stanley was an impactful and vital department member is an understatement. She will be sorely missed in the board meetings and around our community.

Please keep her and her family in your thoughts and prayers.

Respectfully,
Chief Maseda
