Department Mourns the Loss of FAO Nevin O’Hearn

It is with profound sadness that we learned of the unexpected passing of one of our own, Nevin O’Hearn. O’Hearn, who joined our department on February 11, 2019, served with dedication as a Fire Apparatus Operator (FAO) and Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (A-EMT) at Cherokee County Fire Station 13 in the Sutallee community.

His unwavering commitment to serving others and his kind spirit touched the lives of many, both within our department and in the community. Though his death was unrelated to his duties, the loss of Nevin is felt deeply by all of us.

As we navigate this difficult time, we ask for your support and compassion for his family, friends, and fellow firefighters. Let us come together to honor his memory and the impact he made in our community.

Rest in peace, Nevin. You will be missed but never forgotten.
