Fair Winds and Following Seas.
It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of retired Fire Marshal Kelly Wood, who left us peacefully at home earlier today. Kelly joined the Pinetop Fire District in 1996 as a reserve firefighter and dedicated the next 24 years to serving our community with honor and pride.
Throughout his distinguished career, Kelly rose to the rank of Engineer before accepting the role of Fire Marshal, where his leadership and compassion touched countless lives. He was not only a highly respected member of the fire service but also a steadfast friend always ready to help at a moment’s notice.
We extend our deepest condolences to Kelly’s family, friends, and all those whose lives he impacted. His legacy of service and kindness will continue to inspire us all at Pinetop Fire District.
Rest easy, Kelly. We will carry on your example and always remember your dedication to this community.
