Watkins Street regrets to inform you that former Watkins Street member Captain John Galvin has passed away due to WTC illness. He served the FDNY for 32 years starting in E231 in 1970 and spending more than a decade on Watkins Street during the "War Years" serving in E231, B44, and L120. In 1981 he was promoted to lieutenant and assigned to E239. After about another decade in that rank he was promoted to Captain and assigned to B21 and finished out his distinguished career in Divison 8 retiring in 2002. His son Captain Rob Galvin has followed in his fathers footsteps and is assigned to Division 8- Bureau of Operations. Captain John Galvin's brother is also a former Watkins Street member, Thomas Galvin, with a distinguished career retiring as the Chief of Training. Please keep the Galvin family in your thoughts and prayers.

Rest In Peace, Capt. Galvin. May your family at home and on the job be comforted.
Was Capt. Calvin related to Joseph Calvin who was on the many years ago?
