The New Windsor Fire and Hose Company #1 regrets to announce the passing of Life Member J. Edward "Eddie" Green on Friday, January 8, 2021. Eddie was a dedicated member of the New Windsor Fire and Hose Company #1 for 67 years, and could often be found hanging out at the station playing solitaire, and assisting the department in anyway possible. The department sends our sincere condolences to Ms. Kitty and the entire Green Family on the loss of Eddie, a New Windsor icon that that will be surely missed.

A memorial service will be held at a later date. Inurnment will be in Pipe Creek Cemetery, near New Windsor.
