Welcome to the Eastport Fire Department’s website. We are very fortunate that in 2019 we are to be able to celebrate over 106 years of dedicated service to our community. We have protected the communities of Eastport, Speonk, Remsenburg and parts of Manorville vigilantly, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for more than a century and are strong in the best values, and traditions of the fire service.

Please know how honored and privileged I feel to be representing our community as Chief of Department. I began my volunteer fire fighting career over 34 years ago and continued through my military career serving the communities, I lived in.  Joining the Eastport Fire Department 10 years ago, never did I think I would have the awesome responsibility and privilege to lead this department in this capacity. I am very proud of the work we do here at Eastport on many levels. From training on the latest equipment, to refreshing on the basics. While handling the simplest of Automatic Alarms giving reassurance to our community members that everything is ok, to the most complicated Heavy Rescue extrications. No matter what the challenge, know we are up for the challenge. This department always stands tall even when kneeling down to help our neighbors. Our department will always rise to the challenges only to pause and pay tribute to a fallen brother or sister. This is just one of the reasons I feel so fortunate to stand among the ranks and lead this fine group of Volunteer Professionals into 2023.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those who continue to make this department a success.  The Board of Fire Commissioners, the Officers, the Members, the Ladies Auxiliary and last but certainly not least, the Junior Fire Company. Without all your support in all that we do, our department would not be as successful as we are. I feel that having a department that is so dedicated to its community starts at home. The men and women that make up the Eastport Fire Department are only able to do so because of the selfless sacrifice of their families and significant others. The community is much safer for their gracious gift of time and energy spent away from home and I as Chief, thank each one of you.

With the support of my fellow chiefs, officers, firefighters, and YOU, the community, I fully intend to lead our department in the direction of progress and prosperity. With over a century of tradition, service, and integrity behind us, I am very excited for the year to come.
