Congratulations to the Lamoine Volunteer Fire Department’s own Lieutenant Ryan Stilwell on his recent graduation from the Hancock County Fire Academy. This is a tremendous accomplishment and a proud moment for Ryan, his family, and all of us at LVFD. The Fire Academy is a demanding and intensive program that requires a significant commitment of time, energy, and dedication. Over the course of six months, Ryan participated in hands-on training every other weekend, completed well over 100 hours of study, and worked toward earning his Pro Board Firefighter I/II certification.

In addition to completing the academy, Ryan was also selected to serve as a Company Officer during the program, a recognition of his leadership, commitment, and professionalism among his peers. We are incredibly proud to have Ryan serving in our ranks and standing alongside us as part of the Lamoine Volunteer Fire Department. His hard work and continued service reflect the very best of what it means to be a firefighter and a member of this department.

We also want to extend a special thank you to Ryan’s wife and family for supporting him throughout this journey and for sharing him with us in service to this noble cause. The time and commitment required to complete fire academy training affects not only the firefighter, but also the loved ones who stand beside them. Their support makes this kind of service possible.

Congratulations as well to every firefighter in the Hancock County Fire Academy, Class of 2026. Completing this program is no small achievement, and each graduate should be proud of the dedication, discipline, and perseverance it took to reach this milestone.
