The Officers and Members of the Fire Company would like to congratulate Probationary Firefighters Dickman, Coughlan, Keating, and Heffelfinger on graduating from the Toms River Fire Training Center’s 2026 Winter/Spring Firefighter Level 1 & 2 Class. Congratulations to all of you on this outstanding achievement!
This graduation was especially meaningful for Chief Keating, who had the honor of teaching, mentoring, and presenting his son, Firefighter Colin Keating, with his Firefighter Level 1 & 2 Certificates. It was also a proud moment for Past President and Firefighter Dickman, who had the privilege of presenting his son, Firefighter Donovan Dickman, with his Firefighter Level 1 & 2 Certificates. Additionally, it was a proud moment for Lieutenant Gabriel, who had the privilege of presenting his brother-in-law, Firefighter Brian Coughlan, with his Firefighter Level 1 & 2 Certificates.
It is great to see these families continuing their proud tradition of service to the Fire Company and the community. The dedication, commitment, and passion for the fire service are clearly being passed down to the next generation.
We wish all of our graduates a safe, successful, and rewarding career in the fire service.
Congratulations again to all of our newest Firefighters!
