We regret to advise you that a 64-year-old Firefighter had a heart
attack at the scene of a chimney fire and later died at local
hospital in Marinette County, WI last night. Athelstane FD Chief
Scott Durian identified the Firefighter this morning as Bob Phillips
who had been with the department for about 3 years. He was also
employed by Fleming's Fire where he sold fire apparatus and
equipment, As fire operations were winding down, FF Phillips was
operating the pump when he suddenly collapsed. Our deepest
condolences to all effected and especially the Phillips family.
