Each year as part of the Georgia Fire Service Conference, firefighters who passed away during the previous year are recognized at the annual Memorial Service, scheduled this year for Friday, September 30th at 8 a.m. Firefighters do not have to have been a member of the Georgia Association of Fire Chiefs or the Georgia State Firefighters Association to be recognized. 

 

If you have lost a current or retired member of your department since the last conference (September 2019), please submit their information so that they may be recognized. All information is due by August 15, 2022.
