BEST OF LUCK

 CAPTAIN WILLIAM CALLANAN

After a 28 year career with the North Smithfield Fire Department, Captain William Callanan has retired.  His brothers in the department were present at 7:30 AM on June 28th in dress blue uniform to offer a thankful salute at the end of the Captain's last shift.  According to Department Chief Joel Jillson, it was "a most appropriate send off to a good man who revered his profession, giving so much...... asking little in return!"  Captain Callanan was a volunteer with the department for five years before his full time employment.   He achieved the rank of Fire/Rescue Captain, was the department EMS Coordinator, CPR & AED Instructor, Police Medical Consultant, and in 2015 was recognized as the EMS Professional of the Year by Rhode Island Department of Health.  He has also been the Department Honor Guard Bagpiper, a member of the RI Professional Firefighters Pipes and Drums, and IAFF Local #3984 General Treasurer.  On behalf of the entire community that Bill has served so well, I offer our thanks and best wishes for a long and healthy well deserved retirement.  Chief Jillson and I also offer our sincerest thanks to his wife Diane and his children Patrick and Emily for sharing his time and talent over so many years.
