Jerry Fickes Memorial Social Event
In honor of Jerry Fickes, Capitol Fire Training in coordination with Barnaby's of West Chester held a social event to honor the fallen firefighters from Wilmington Fire Department (Jerry Fickes, Christopher Leach, and Ardythe Hope). During this event, we were honored to have guest speaker Ret. Wilmington Firefighter Terrance Tate. FF. Tate opened up about his role and efforts amongst many the night of the Lakeview Road fire, which claimed the lives of those three.
In this discussion he also talks about his mental state not only before, but after the tragedy. This event was the fire time Tate has publicly spoken about the tragedy since the day of giving his statement.
