For Assistant Fire Chief Greg Vawser and EMT Jayne Hunsaker, working with great people and having the opportunity to give back to the community made it all worthwhile. The two longtime workers for the Rock Creek Fire District/Rock Creek Quick Response have retired, and were thanked Monday during a surprise gathering at the fire station. “Just working with all the great crew we’ve had here, that’s the biggest thing,” Vawser said were some of his fondest memories. For him, his career at the fire district was a “family thing,” as his father and uncle were firefighters there when he began work 35 years ago.
Vawser also worked for UPS for 32 years.
Hunsaker said she has seen a lot of things, some of which she doesn’t want to remember, including responding to crashes when she knew the people involved.
