(Gerry Armstrong (l) receives plaque from C.A.O Mark McCaigThe town of Fort Frances is losing its fire chief.
Gerry Armstrong is retiring at the end of this year after five years at the helm.
"It's something I've been thinking about now for the last number of months," says Armstrong. "I guess my return to Fort Frances as fire chief was one of those things that really was not probably going to be a long term situation."
Armstrong joined the fire department in 1976, leaving in 1986 to take a position with the Ontario Fire Marshall's office before returning as fire chief.
