Our heartfelt remorse for the loss our brothers and sisters at Local 81 are feeling. We are at a loss of words.We are heartbroken over the death of Salt Lake City Firefighter and Local 81 President John Stevens. Johnny was a fierce advocate for our Firefighters, a dedicated Paramedic, and a devoted husband. He was the best of us, and words can’t do him justice- he was just that good.

We will never forget.

Don't forget to drop by the Firefighter Chili Cook Off in support of the UofU's Burn Camp.

Our chili speaks to the nature of a West Valley Firefighter - rebellious, good, and maybe just a little spicy. Our Chili Verde bucks the trend, but still delivers.

Recently, One of our crews, 72A were dispatched to a house fire. With a known victim, Captain Tyson Rolfe, Sr. FF Grant Brimhall, FF Zach Lentz, FF Justin Longman, FF Mallory Tyler, and FF Cole Smith made a hasty entrance and search of the structure. They were able to extract the caller. Their efforts were supported by Engineer Alek House on the pump panel and Battalion Chief Sean Hoffman in command.

Outside and en route to definitive care, the victim, badly burned and with inhalation injuries, received critical care provided by CCP Kyle Bavasi, FF Braeden Scott and a UFA Crew. His care involved advanced airway support unique to West Valley Firefighters, giving him the best chance at survival.

This incident highlights the dedication and talent of West Valley Professional Firefighters.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.
