Bellmawr NJ: MOURNING THREE GOOD MEN

  On February 1, 2008, Daniel Sullivan, 88, (past chief) of Bellmawr Fire & Rescue 1, passed away after a long illness. Chief Sullivan was a proactive leader in the fire service, and was a hands-on type individual. He served his community for over 60 years of dedicated service, and was extremely instrumental with the construction of the Firehouse located on Lewis Avenue.

  On February 15, 2008, Robert McNamee, 47, passed away unexpectedly. Bob who knew him, was a retired member and past fire officer, of Bellmawr Park Fire Company. He was very dedicated to the fire company, and would do anything for his family and his community.

  On February 16, 2008, Richard Griffin, 78, passed away after a lengthy illness. Dick, as many knew him, was a associate member of Bellmawr Park Fire Company since 1988. Dick was also extremely dedicated to the community. Dick assisted the youth at the local little league for most of his life. On many evenings Dick could be found at the Bellmawr Little or at the firehouse on Essex Avenue.

  The Department will keep all three members and their families in our prayers. God Rest their souls.
