Nature:  Indian River Offer Condolences to Lewes Fire Department

On behalf of the Indian River Volunteer Fire Company, we would like to express our deepest sympathy and offer our prayers and thoughts to our fellow firefighters, families, and friends of the Lewes Fire Department with the passing of Tim McClanahan.

No words can express the sorrow you are going through but may it help to know that your fellow fighters are here to assist you.

Today, we join the entire fire service and honor the courage and sacrifice as we stand with loved ones in their time of grief.

This is a stark reminder of the dangers faced by our firefighters every day.
