This memorial is a deeply meaningful tradition that reminds us of the strength, unity, and compassion that binds us together as a fire fighter family.

We encourage all locals and members across Arizona to share these events with your memberships and especially with the families of our fallen. Your attendance makes a difference. Together let’s honor the legacies of those who have come before us and who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Let’s stand together to celebrate the bond we share, honor our fallen heroes, and support their families. Thank you.

Today, family and friends gathered to celebrate the life and career of Captain Scott Leatham. He bravely fought cancer but ultimately succumbed to the disease. He has become yet another firefighter taken too soon by a disease that disproportionately affects those in our profession. Please keep his family, and the brothers and sisters of Tempe Firefighters in your thoughts.

Rest easy, Brother Leatham.

Congratulations Dan look forward to your leadership and teamwork. 

Way to go Dan! Well deserved.

I would love to see the PFFA work to improve retired members COLA annually. With the last 4 years of inflation , we lost money. People collecting social security get much better COLAS.🚒🚒

The inception of the PFFA came about as a successor to the Arizona State Firemen’s Association, which was founded in 1924. During that time, Tucson Chief Joseph Roberts was the head of the Firemen’s Association. Interestingly enough, activists in that original organization were mostly chiefs and the organization was open to all firefighters, professional and volunteer. One key activist in the AFSA was Phoenix Deputy Chief, Jake Siken.
