NFD says fare thee well
From the Norwood Fire Department:

Firefighter/EMT Kevin Brown, hired in 1993 will leave us with 33 years of service and a well known reputation of not only being a bull on the fireground but his skills in working with his hands. Whether it was making custom designed fire house signs or operating his own business, you could always find Kev involved in some type of project. We wish FF Brown a long and healthy retirement and hope that this wont be the last breakfast he decides to stop in and have at 135 Nahatan Street
Firefighter/Paramedic Paul Ronco, hired in 1995 will leave us (yes he's really retiring this time) with 31 years of service and as one of the most well known Norwood Firefighters around town and a strong and well respected President of Local 1631. Firefighter Paul as he is known was one of the original Paramedics of NFD and has cared for the residents of this town during their worst hour. FF Ronco will leave behind a hole in not only Local 1631 but in the SAFE program that he has been a part of for many generations of students. We wish FF Ronco a long and healthy retirement, and we hope that he'll stop in from time to time when he ventures up from South Carolina. Local 1631 also hopes he invests in an electronic calendar so he can stop double booking himself on a regular basis, but you know what they say about teaching old dogs new tricks.…
