20 years ago today we lost a legend in the fire service, Lt. Pete “The Vulcan” Lund in a house fire while serving his community of Woodmere. One of the BEST bosses and a true friend. Let’s keep Pete in our prayers today. May he R.I.P.

I never had the good fortune to meet, Lt. Pete Lund… But he’s been an inspiration to me throughout my career and continues to to be one. 20 years since his passing, may we never forget the God of Fire, Vulcan. Pete Lund!
