From another site:
With regret, the Department announces the death of retired Firefighter Jerry J. Fargione appointed
January 24, 1959, retired July 2, 1981, formerly of L-132, residing in Suffolk County, NY, which occurred on
February 23, 2022.
Jerry was a long time member of L-132. A good man who gave us a lot of laughs and some great meals.
May he Rest in Peace and may his families at home and on St. Johns Place (The Eye Of The Storm) be comforted. You will be missed.

Can you get the word out for me to all members and former members of Ladder 31, Engine 82 notifying them of Richie’s death and funeral arrangements.
