Honorary Members

Senior Firefighter Frank Lee Schultise(Founding Member)
Final Call: September 12, 2017 Frankie was more than just a retired milk truck driver and a farmer to our agency. Frankie’s home served as a gracious host for Lake Jericho Volunteer Fire & Rescue first fire station and was one our founding members. Even years after the fire station relocated to its current location Frankie continued to support our department in many other ways throughout the years. If not for the generosity of Frankie, his wife Patsy the task of providing fire protection would have taken on a much more daunting and difficult operational challenge and for that we are grateful. So with great pleasure and pride Senior Firefighter Frankie Schultise was awarded posthumously honorary membership by department proclamation and its grateful membership.
