HONORING FIREFIGHTER BOB WEIMER
______
HON. JOHN JOYCE
of pennsylvania
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, May 18, 2021
Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Firefighter Bob Weimer for his 21 years of service with the Meyersdale Volunteer Fire Department in Somerset County, Pennsylvania.
Firefighters' commitment and service to our community are invaluable. Volunteer firefighters often are called on to respond to emergencies of all types. From battling structure fires to conducting search and rescue operations, volunteer firefighters respond immediately whenever disaster strikes. These heroes often go above and beyond--they teach first aid, educate students about fire and other dangerous hazards, and even install car safety seats for children. Through their diverse and often-difficult work, volunteer firefighters provide lifesaving services and are a staple of our local community.
Firefighter Weimer has worked throughout his career to serve the people of Somerset County. On behalf of Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District, I thank him for his work to protect life and property in our community and wish him continued health, safety, and success.
