Look for future photos on RoanokeFirefighters.com

Although this website is about the Firefighters of Roanoke City, and occasionally, Roanoke County, I feel I have to ask the readers of this webpage to keep the family and friends of Rocky Mount VFD members Posey Dillon and Danny Altice in your thoughts. Posey and Danny were responding to a fire call in Union Hall today (7/26/2010) when their Wagon was involved in an accident in Rocky Mount on Route 40. The tragic accident took the lives of both of these brave men.

I am continuing my efforts to put more images up on this site, as time permits. Thanks to everyone for the support, and keep coming back to this page for more images.

Newer, Older Fire Images

I am slowly starting to scan some of the many images I have taken on slide and negative film over the past years. I will be highlighting the posting of these new, old images in the table below.

Images from Local 1132 MDA Fundraising at Sams Club Images from the Hodges Lumber Yard Fire in NW Roanoke Images from the Singer Furniture Fire in NE Roanoke - 2/18/1985

Images from Roanoke Fire Department Station #9 in 1983 and 1984

More Images from the 2002 Commercial Structure Fire - 300 Block of Salem Ave. SW

I am in the process of gathering my fire images from the past 25 years with the Roanoke Fire Department, and my work for the now defunct Grumman Fire Equipment Company. 

I hope to have them posted soon.
