It is with deep sorrow that we have learned of the passing of Captain Michael Curtis of Station 56 of the Baltimore County Fire Department.

He was a member of the Reisterstown Volunteer Fire Company (as well as the Glyndon Volunteer Fire company). Two of his sons are a member of RVFC, as well.

He was a career firefighter and one who cared. He will be missed by all.

Please keep the family and friends in your hearts and prayers…

(Due to the current pandemic, the funeral services will be private and for family only.)

Our current Squad 414, a 1992 Peterbilt, has been in service since January 1993. It has served us well through the years. We have purchased a new squad that is currently being built (more information to follow in the next 6 months), but in the mean time we are cleaning up the Peterbilt to put it up for sale. All of the tools were removed and every compartment was cleaned. We will post a for sale post on our webpage in the next couple of weeks.
