Info

Many personnel changes have taken place within the department this year.Following the retirement of Deputy Chief Richard Harris after 33 years of serviceto the town, Captain William Quinn Jr. was promoted to the Deputy Fire Chiefposition. Firefighter Robert Felt was appointed to the position of Captain/FireInspector and Thomas Pellegrino was hired as a Firefighter/paramedic.As a member of the Orleans Fire Department for the past thirty-five years, firechief for the past eight years, I retired from the department at the end ofDecember. It has been a privilege and an honor to have served the residents andvisitors of Orleans over my career. Many changes have taken place ineducational requirements, equipment standards, and the overall demands of adepartment that now deals with all emergency services, much more than the"fire" department I joined in 1972. There are many memorable events andcertainly tragedies that took place over the years and I can only hope thatlessons were learned and our knowledge and efficiency can improve in thefuture.I would like to thank all of the town department managers and their staff, TownAdministrator John Kelly, and the Board of Selectmen for their continued support.I am proud to have been associated will all of my brothers and sisters of the fireservice in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, across the U.S., and particularlyright here in Orleans. Thanks to all of you for your support, stay safe.Respectfully submitted,Steven P. Edwards, Fire ChiefSince Deputy Harris left in July, Chief’s vacation period since August, anextended on the job injury and two lengthy medical absences we have seen thedepartment members once again place the Town first and spend many extrahours in the station and on calls. I extend my personal thanks for a job well doneand the many additional duties many have taken on.Although there are many noteworthy calls during the year one stands out as ashining moment where two Orleans Departments shared a response and ahappy outcome. Aiding in Nauset Inlet to the Eastham Fire Department ourHarbor Master Farber and Capt. Pike located a kayaker lost in thick fog. With theaid of a GPS reading Dawson placed the rescue boat within 15 feet of the coldand tired man. After delivery to the Town boat ramp he was reunited with hisfamily.129
