In Community

Cobourg Fire Department Captain Chris Brown retired from the fire service on Friday, April 17, 2020.

Captain Brown has served as a member of the Cobourg Fire Department for thirty-years.

Because of COVID-19, members of the service were unable to give Captain Brown a proper send off, but firefighters and their families drove by Captain Brown’s house to wish him and his wife happiness in their retirement.
