It is with deep regret that we announce the passing of  Firefighter Earl Derstine  Earl was an active member of MTFD for the last nine years where besides his firefighing duties he was also a driver and a trustee. His wealth of knowledge around the firehouse as well as his ability to wear a smile through out the good times and bad will be greatly missed.
