We are saddened by the tragic news from the Spokane County Sheriff's Office confirming the death of one deputy and that a second deputy, critically injured in the same incident, is not expected to survive.

We send our collective love, deepest sympathy, and unwavering support to their families, fellow deputies, and the communities these dedicated public servants have sworn to protect.

Their courage, sacrifice, and commitment to serving others will not be forgotten.

We stand with the entire Spokane County Sheriff's Office family during this unimaginable loss. ❤️

We recommend following thier public media and Spokane area news agencies for further details.

40 hours of heavy lifting for two of your East Pierce Fire and Rescue Technical Rescue Technicians 💪

Firefighters Anthony and Marcus completed the 40 hour Structural Collapse class with 16 other students at McLane Black Lake Fire Department. They focused on building shoring as well as lifting and moving heavy objects. They will bring these skills back to your EPFR Tech Rescue Team and be better prepared to serve you! Good work!

This past week, your East Pierce Firefighters had a fantastic time attending the PNW Fire Conference! More than 30 of us took part in lectures, leadership classes, and hands-on training alongside hundreds of other firefighters from departments across the country.

Conferences like this give us opportunities to learn new skills, practice our craft, and learn from the knowledge and experiences of other firefighters. Staying ready takes ongoing work, no matter how long we’ve been on the job. The time we put into training helps us make better decisions, work more effectively, and serve our community to the very best of our abilities.

Your firefighters took classes on ventilation, forcible entry, machinery rescue, hose handling, and search. We worked hard, learned a lot, and had so much fun! We’ll bring those lessons back to our crews and keep working to improve every day.

A huge thank you to the instructors and training companies who shared their knowledge with us, and to everyone behind PNWFC for putting together such a great week!

Your Station 118 firefighters in Edgewood recently spent time getting familiar with new buildings going up in their response area.

These walkthroughs give us a chance to learn building layouts, identify access points, and locate fire protection systems BEFORE an emergency happens. Seeing a building during construction also helps firefighters understand how it’s built, including details that will eventually be hidden behind walls.

As our community grows, getting to know these new buildings is part of being prepared to serve the people who will live and work in them. We are proud to serve you!

Jeff served as a firefighter with Sumner FD and East Pierce Fire & Rescue for more than 20 years. On the 4th anniversary of his death, we wanted to share a few things that made him so special to the people who worked alongside him.

Jeff was genuinely friends with everybody. He had a way of making everyone feel like they were part of the group.

He always brought a positive attitude to shift. It’s hard to remember him ever being negative or bringing the mood down.

If you pulled into the station and saw Jeff’s car in the parking lot, you knew you were going to have a good day. You knew there would be a lot of laughing, probably enough that somebody might p*e their pants.

At the same time, there was a real sense of trust when Jeff was on shift. You knew he would take care of you and have your back.

He genuinely cared about the people he worked with and the people we served. He didn’t just ask how you were doing to make conversation. He wanted to know about you, your family, what was happening in your life, and how things were really going.

Jeff made work better simply by being there. Four years later, that is still one of the things people remember and miss most about him.

We miss you, Jeff, and we’re grateful for the time we had with you.

Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday for our 30th annual Open House!

We enjoyed spending the day with you, answering questions, and giving you a closer look at the work we do. It’s always fun to have time together outside of an emergency and to see so many families come out to meet their firefighters!
