Today long- time City Fire Bureau supporter and retired volunteer member Bob "Hook" Still passed away after a short illness. "Hook" was best known in recent years for his daily visits to most of the City's fire houses for a cup of coffee, "hot balls" and good old ball bustings. "Hook" was the only City Pop known to be appointed as an honorary member of the IAFF Local 428 and the Harrisburg Retired Paid Firefighters Association, an honor he cherished. As a volunteer, "Hook" was the last actively engaged members of the now defunct Reily Hose Company # 10 where he served for many years.
Rest in peace "Hook", we'll all miss your stories and your presence around the houses.
