It is with deep regret that the Volunteer Hose Company of Middletown announces the passing of Firefighter John Timney. John joined the department in January 2003 and remained active until his recent passing. He committed much attention as an Assistant Engineer for two years, where he focused his time maintaining the small equipment on all of the apparatus. John leaves behind his wife of 35 years, Star, a daughter Melanie, a son Jeremy and daughter Meghann, both of whom are members of the Volunteer Hose Company. Services will be Friday evening, June 11th at 18:00hrs at the Odessa Fire Hall. The officers and members of the Volunteer Hose Company of Middletown wish to extend our sympathy to the Timney family in their time of need. John was a wonderful man who will be missed by all who knew him.
