Firefighter memorial at Mangrove Mountain

The new firefighter memorial

Mangrove Mountain Rural Fire Brigade members officially opened their memorial garden earlier this month in memory of Life Member of the brigade, the late Phillip Williams.

The garden was established to honour past and present members and their contribution, commitment, dedication and sacrifice to the community.

The site is designed to be a peaceful space for reflection and remembrance.

Acting District Manager Inspector Shane Geerin attended the special ceremony on November 9 and acknowledged the hard work and dedication of the brigade leadership group and members un creating the wonderful memorial.

Special mention was made of the community support and generosity with many local businesses and organisations contributing to the community asset.
