Kennewick's First Paid Firefighter Passes Away
Updated On: Sep 14, 2011
L1296 Members,
 
KFD's first paid firefighter, Jim Billingsley, died January 7th at age 87.  The funeral service will held January 11 at Chapel of the Hills in Kennewick at 1300 hrs.  If you want to attend, Class A attire is appropriate.
 
Following the service, the casket will be loaded into the back of Old #1 (on the trailer), and transported by Brian Ellis to the cemetery at 10th and Union.  Brian is looking for another 1296 member who would want to accompany him, so if you're interested please contact Brian.
 
Thanks,
Andy
