Annually, at the OAFC Conference, a memorial service is held to honour the chief officers who have passed away since our last conference.
In 2021, we will be once again meeting virtually for all OAFC events. At our Annual General Meeting on November 24, 2021, we will take a moment to honour chief officers who have passed away since our event in 2019, virtually, with a short memorial presentation. We will not be laying the helmets at this event.
In 2022, we hope to resume the in person memorial service at the OAFC Annual Conference & Trade Show in May 2022, and give the home department the opportunity to lay the helmet at the ceremony to honour chief officers that have passed since we last met in person. If no one is selected from the home department, the President or designate will appoint someone from the membership to act on behalf the home fire department.
This form can be used to submit name(s) for this year's memorial presentation. The fire department contact named on this form will be notified prior to the event with further details.
If you have any questions or comments, please let us know. On behalf of our members and the fire service, thank you for choosing to honour your fire service leaders.
