Welcome Members American Fork Fire & Rescue 96 N. Center St. American Fork, Utah 84003 Fire Chief Aaron Brems

Welcome Firefighters and Association Members,   I would like to personally welcome each of you to the 111th annual Utah State Firefighters’ Association Convention. It is an honor and privilege for American Fork City and American Fork Fire & Rescue to host all of Utah’s finest. We are confident this convention will be memorable for each of you and your families.   It’s an exciting time for firefighters as we continue to grow and adapt, remaining always ready, motivated and dedicated to answering the call and serving others. The fire service is facing a time of many changes and challenges, and we must continue to meet these challenges together.   This year’s convention theme (Fit for Duty, Fit for Life) will help us focus on what it means to become more resilient on the job and at home while finding more alignment and balance between our professional and personal lives. We are better firefighters and first responders if we can find the delicate balance between work and home life. Our goal with this training is to help all of us learn to develop mental resiliency and toughness, which will lead us to become better in all aspects of our lives. When we improve as individuals, we also improve as firefighters, which helps us be top-notch professionals that provide premier Fire/EMS service to our communities where we live, work, and play.   There will be presentations and training on a variety of topics that include Hands on Extrication, Highway Incident Safety, and more. We will also have special guests Mike and Anne Gagliano, authors of Challenges of the Firefighter Marriage and Dr. Bruce Jackson, founder of the Institute of Human Excellence. During the conference, there will be time for social and professional interaction in a relaxed atmosphere. There will be a family BBQ and a golf tournament at Fox Hollow Golf Club. This will be a great opportunity to make new friends and acquaintances as well as renew old ones.   In closing, I would like to thank each of you for attending our 2019 convention, and I’m confident this experience will be rewarding for you. My personal respect and thanks go out to each of you. Respectfully, Aaron Brems, Fire Chief American Fork Fire & Rescue

Welcome Members Office of the Mayor

51 E. Main St. American Fork, Utah 84003

Firefighters and Associates,   I couldn’t be more proud to have American Fork City host the Utah State Firefighters’ Association Convention.   When I took on the mantle of Mayor, I was charged with the health, safety, and welfare of my community. That is an awesome and intimidating responsibility to have. But while every mayor feels the responsibility of that mantle, we also recognize that it’s our police and fire that carry its weight. So thank you for all you do. Your presence not only saves lives in very real and specific ways, but it also lends to the general feeling of safety that makes up the very underpinnings of our great communities.   I hope you find value in your conference as you work toward being fit for duty and life. I know residents are grateful that on their worst days they can always call you. And while it’s easy to make sure you have the physical tools required to assist, it’s much harder to give you the emotional and mental tools needed. But these intangible tools are just as important, if not more. Just as you always make sure to replenish your air supply in your SCBAs, or medical supplies in your ambulances, I hope you develop the skills to replenish your supply of empathy, happiness, and attention so that you aren’t left empty when you or your family need it. It will require effort and training - two things I know you are familiar with already.   Please know your mayors and councils support you, your communities support you, and your loved ones support you. And thank you again for supporting all of us.   Enjoy yourself and welcome to American Fork City! Thank you, Mayor Brad Frost American Fork City

Welcome Members

On behalf of the AFFR Association, we thank you for participating in the 2019 Utah State Firefighters’ Association Convention in American Fork City. We are honored to be hosting the convention this year, and we hope that you feel welcome. As we contemplated the theme for this year’s convention, we wanted each of our fellow firefighters to feel appreciated and valued. The theme this year is “Fit for Duty, Fit for Life”. I understand the physical and emotional toll this career takes on each of us. As we focus on our mental, emotional, and physical strength, we will become better individuals on the job and at home.   The citizens who each of you serve in your own cities depend on us to be our best selves. Ready and capable to help in various ways and situations. We are expected to be professional and caring when dealing with sensitive, even traumatic, experiences that people are going through. For some of us that may come easy, and for others it takes some extra time and training. Thankfully, we are not on the job alone.   We depend on each other for support and strength in difficult situations. The Firefighters’ Convention is an incredible opportunity for us to be united together for a great purpose. We are here to strengthen relationships with each other. Through the classes and training, we will be able to support one another and build each other up as we improve ourselves individually. This convention is also an opportunity to have fun and enjoy each other’s company along with our loved ones.   We want to thank all firefighters for the many hours you invest in helping those around you. We also want to thank our families for their support. Thank you again for participating in this year’s convention. Peace be with you, Firefighter Colter Jess Christen, President American Fork Firefighters’ Association American Fork Fire & Rescue

Women’s Auxiliary Message

Welcome to the 2019 Utah State Firefighters’ Convention!     It is so exciting to get together once again as an organization and as friends in support of our local firefighters. We are so grateful to the American Fork Firefighters’ Association for hosting this year’s convention and look forward to getting to know their beautiful city.   This year’s theme is an open invitation – “FIT FOR” and you fill in the blank. A few that come to mind…. Fit For Life, Fit For Happiness, Fit For Serving, Fit For Duty, Fit For Caring. In the Utah State Firefighters’ Association and Auxiliary, serving is our goal and our honor. The Firefighters serve without thought to self, and we in the Auxiliary support that service and try to make it easier on them.   So, come and enjoy the activities that have been planned. Get to know women from other auxiliaries, share your experiences and any ideas you have that may help to strengthen our association. The donations of blankets, food, etc. to the University of Utah Burn Center make more of a difference than one can imagine. Whenever we give of ourselves, we always get more back.   It has been an honor to serve as your President for this past year. The officers in the Utah State Firefighters’ Association are here to serve you and they work hard doing just that! Sincerely, Marilyn Gillette, President Utah State Firefighters’ Auxiliary Tooele City, Utah

2019 AWARD RECIPIENTS FIREFIGHTER OF THE YEAR

Josh Munns – Garland City Fire Department   On the evening of January 15, 2019, the Garland City Fire Department was dispatched on a call for a 7-year-old male who was choking. In response to the call, Josh Munns was on his way to the station when he received a phone call from his brother, Jimmy, who was on shift at the time. Jimmy informed Josh that the incident was at his home, and he needed Josh to get there as quickly as possible.   Without hesitation, Josh made the decision to bypass the station and drive straight to Jimmy’s home in order to assess the situation and provide assistance. When Josh arrived, he found his nephew, Gus, lifeless, blue, and pulseless. Josh immediately took Gus in his arms and put him in his truck to transport him to the hospital.   Josh, to the best of his ability, assisted Gus’ mother, Lacey, with CPR until they arrived at the hospital. Gus was taken into the ER, where CPR was continued by hospital staff. Pausing for a rhythm check, they miraculously detected a pulse. Surgery was performed shortly after to remove the push pin Gus had swallowed, and he soon returned home and made a full recovery. Due to Josh’s quick decision making and subsequent actions, Gus is alive and well today.

MERITORIOUS AWARD FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE – INDIVIDUAL Marty Peterson – Salt Lake City Fire Department

After being invited to one meeting of the Pension Membership Council as an observer, Marty was unexpectedly presented with the opportunity to fill the role of Pension Representative on the PFFU Executive Board, where he represents all firefighters in the state of Utah. He accepted the assignment and took it to heart.     His firm grasp of the numbers involved in our pension system and his efforts to educate himself on the history of the system have made him a formidable representative for the interests of firefighters, professional and volunteer, and a go-to expert on the subject. He advises the Executive Director of the National Conference on Public Employee Retirement Systems and the IAFF Pension staff in Washington, DC on pension issues.     Since 1941, the NCPERS has been the largest and most influential body that lobbies and protects all public employee pensions on a national level. In addition to his mastery of and effectiveness with policy, Marty is a talented and entertaining communicator. He never shirks from an opportunity to explain, whether it be to a brand-new boot on a small department, a confused retired firefighter, or a state senator.

When called, he always makes time to address gatherings of the Utah State Firefighters’ Association, the Professional Fire Fighters of Utah, the Salt Lake Retired Firefighters Association, or any other fire service organization. Whenever Marty speaks about the pension, whether it be to a group or an individual, his passion and excitement show through. He will always spend as long as it takes to make sure an explanation makes sense. He was a major contributor to Backdraft Magazine for many years of his life. Differences of opinion are a constant when it comes to politics, but Marty is always about the win/win.     He has a very calm, patient, fact-driven manner that seeks to enlighten, find common ground, and maintain gentle pressure to accomplish actual solutions. Because of all this and more, he is well connected and highly respected in the fire service community in Utah and nationally. There isn’t a firefighter in the state who hasn’t been positively affected by Marty’s years of work. 28 • Utah State Firefighters’ Association, 2019


Award Recipients

2019 AWARD RECIPIENTS MERITORIOUS AWARD FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE – GROUP Lt. Todd Gray – West Valley City Police Department Officer Josh Cook – West Valley City Police Department Officer Oscar Deleon – West Valley City Police Department Officer William Mackintosh – West Valley City Police Department Officer Chandler Sehlmeier – West Valley City Police Department Officer Shaun Vargo – West Valley City Police Department

On April 1, 2019, residents in more than a dozen apartments in West Valley City were displaced after a fire broke out. Officer Josh Cook of the West Valley City Police Department was conducting an extra patrol of the apartments when he observed flames coming from a ground level apartment window of building B (Southeast corner).   He requested immediate assistance to help evacuate the building. Additional officers arrived and attempted to evacuate the building. Welen Hikes, a resident of an upstairs apartment, ran out of the apartment between flames and indicated that her husband was trapped inside the building. Craig Hikes was standing in an upstairs bedroom window, and he couldn’t get out of the building due to the flames entering his bedroom from the apartment hallway.   There were also several small explosions occurring at the center of the building. Craig was hesitant to jump out of the window. Officer Cook drove his vehicle through the vinyl fencing and positioned it next to the building. Lt. Todd Gray and Officers Chandler Sehlemier, Shaun Vargo, William Macintosh, and Oscar Deleon used the vehicle to climb up and pull Craig out of the window and saved his life.

The Dash Poem THE DASH I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend. He referred to the dates on the tombstone from the beginning… to the end. He noted that first came the date of birth and spoke of the following date with tears, but he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years. For that dash represents all the time they spent alive on earth and now only those who loved them know what that little line is worth. For it matters not, how much we own, the cars… the house… the cash. What matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash. So think about this long and hard; are there things you’d like to change? For you never know how much time is left that still can be rearranged. To be less quick to anger and show appreciation more and love the people in our lives like we’ve never loved before. If we treat each other with respect and more often wear a smile… remembering that this special dash might only last a little while. So when your eulogy is being read, with your life’s actions to rehash, would you be proud of the things they say about how you lived your dash?

Help for Victims After a Fire, Flood or Storm We are Go-Givers, Not Just Go Getters

We place people before profit. We do the right thing. ALWAYS. We engage meaningfully in the communities we serve. We give willingly, without regard to “What’s in it for me?”

We Build Lasting Partnerships

We achieve this through compassion, sincerity, and generosity. By recognizing that relationships of trust are everything. By honoring all commitments: say what you do, do what you say. By embracing the principle that “Our strength is in our unity.”
