If you have not heard, this weekend Queen Creek FireFighter Eric “Tink” Tinkham went to bed on shift and he did not wake up the next morning. Doesn’t matter what happened we lost a good man, father, husband and Firefighter. He was 44 in great shape. Please take time to remember Tink’s Family. Tink worked for Rural/Metro for many years and help the Queen Creek Dept start up.
I think how fragile we all are and anything can happen, don’t take any moments for granted live your life to the fullest and take time for all of your friends and family.
I don’t care what club you belong to or where you live you are all my friends and care about all of you!!!!
Please remember the Tinham’s tonight and all this week for it will be very difficult for them and many of us…

Jesus, I'm sorry to hear. I can't believe I didn't hear about this yesterday when I was on shift. I'm sure we'll be sending a truck down for this and if his memorial is on my shift, I'll request to go.
