SUFFERN, NY – It is with deep sadness we share the passing of Rockland Resident and FDNY FF Daniel William Powers, Engine Company 250, who succumbed to illness on October 16, 2023.

Unfortunately Dan, Callie and Danny lost Christine just one year ago on October 25, 2022.

Dan’s passing has thrust Callie and Danny into adulthood and into a situation that no children should ever have to be in.
