Honoring a Distinguished Career

As we prepare to congratulate Chief Meister on this well-deserved promotion, we can't help but reflect on the profound impact he has had on our firehouse.

Your legacy of excellence and dedication to duty will continue to inspire us all. While we will miss your leadership and camaraderie, we are excited to see you excel in your new role and continue to make a difference in the FDNY.
