RIP brother!! As many have eluded to you were a gentle giant with a tremendous heart. You always found ways to put a smile on anyone´s face. Too many stories to share but the most memorable were the fishing trips and late night crew we ran out of Station 8. Attached is a blast from the past!! I´m sure Bryan will still be attaching pranks to our fishing hooks for years to come. Thoughts and prayers to the Kreer family and all the brothers and sisters of Aetna Hose Hook & Ladder
