Franklin J Oliver was my father. He was a firefighter for 40 years, and a engineer of pumper #4 in Provincetown, Mass. As a child we would spend a few hours every Sunday at the firehouse. I can still remember the strange smell of the wet hoses hanging to dry. He loved the fire department & died doing what he loved. His signature is still on the inspection sticker, a 36 LaFrance Pumper. You couldn’t ask for a more dedicated fireman.
We are working hard to provide important resources, workshops, and timely information to help both firefighters and our Fire Hero Families stay connected and well during these unprecedented times. These new resources can be found here on our website, shared through E-mail, and through our social media channels.
You can receive information on National Fallen Firefighters Foundation resources, news, events, and ways you can help families and the fire service through our online newsletter.
