It has been almost 30 years since we lost a great friend, classmate, and firefighter, and the grief our community suffered with this loss is still felt in our community . Knowing that Jeff was so community-focused , selfless , loved his family and the fire service makes us work harder to be better citizens and human beings . Thanks to Jeff Reick for showing us the way .
