Fuller Road Fire Department

The members of the Fuller Road Fire Department and the Ladies Auxiliary to the Fuller Road Fire Department mourn the loss of social member Andy Cohen. Andy was a huge part of emergency services in Colonie over the last 30+ years and always someone you could count on to be there with a smile! More importantly he was a devoted family man to his wife and two daughters! Our hearts go out the Cohen family as well as all of his relatives and friends during this terribly difficult time.

The Annual Town of Colonie Firefighter of the Year award dinner had been held every year, but due to COVID-19 restrictions the last one held was back in October of 2019. All twelve fire departments in the town come to celebrate. On November 13th, 2022, the dinner was held to celebrate the past three years of Firefighters of the Year. Congratulations to Lous Bologna, Terell Howard and Shaun Deyo!!!!!

On October 22nd, we held our annual Old Timers Night. This night we recognized all of our members with at least 25 (active) years with the department. A certificate from the town and state organizations is presented to new 50-year members. We invite old timers from the town departments. This year the Colonie Town Supervisor, Peter Crummey, was out emcee for the night.

9/27/2022-It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of 7-year member, past explorer and current 1st Lieutenant Ryan Gagliardi. Ryan was a friend to all, an integral member of our department and an inspiration to all around him especially our younger members, many of whom wanted to be just like him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all his family and friends.
