Baby Evie arrived early at 28 weeks, a tiny but mighty girl needing round-the-clock NICU care. Her parents, Chris and Nichole Albrektson, are dedicated members of our Fire/EMS community. Chris bravely serves as a firefighter and EMR, and Nichole is a vital 911 dispatcher, firefighter, and EMT. They've always been there for us, and now they need our support.

For over three decades, Chief Batton stood on the front lines, selflessly serving and protecting our community in North Carolina. His commitment shaped countless lives and built a legacy of courage and compassion that will endure for another 30 years and beyond.

Now, his family faces an unexpected and immense challenge. I've learned that while awaiting the life insurance process, his children are personally covering all immediate expenses.

The courageous men and women of the Oxfordshire Fire Department face danger every day to keep our community safe. On May 15th, 2025, that danger tragically claimed the lives of two of our own, Jennie Logan and Martyn Sadler, while they bravely fought a fire at Bicester Motion. Their dedication to service and their selfless actions will never be forgotten. We also mourn the loss of David Chester, a member of our community. Jennie and Martyn embodied the true spirit of heroism, and their loss leaves a void in the hearts of their colleagues and the community they served so valiantly. Two other firefighters were injured in the blaze and are currently receiving medical care. Let us come together to honor the memory of Jennie and Martyn, offer our deepest condolences to the Chester family, and provide crucial support to all those affected by this tragedy. Your donation will directly aid the families of these heroes and help the injured firefighters on their road to recovery.
