Description
Chief Fenster On April 15, 2004, we lost one of the greatest members of Capital City Fire/Rescue, Chief Michael Fenster. Chief Fenster was a long time member of the Juneau community. Along with being a firefighter, he was an avid pilot. He began working as a pilot for Southeast Skyways in 1971. In 1982, he co-founded Wings of Alaska, a small airline company that serves Southeast Alaska. Chief Fenster joined the fire department in 1972 as a volunteer. In 1991, he became a full time paid chief. He is remember fondly by his co-workers. Chief Fenster was always happy, had a great sense of humor, and was always doing something for someone in the department. Chief Fenster strove for "Readiness, Dedication and Service" throughout his career with CCF/R. He was instrumental in providing increased care and service to all citizens of Juneau. Mike was a valuable asset and loved by all. He will be missed beyond measure. Thank you Dru for you assistance.
