(Missouri Valley, WY) – In an effort to introduce its firefighters to the community, the Missouri Valley Fire Department started a ‘Firefighter of the Month’ spotlight back in May.
August’s featured firefighter is Walt Neil.
Walt had the following to say:
“Hello, my name is Walt Neil. I have been on the department for two and a half years and have the qualifications of FireFighter1 and Wildland Firefighter.”
“I was born and raised here in Fremont County and currently live a half mile from where I was born. I am a US Navy Veteran and currently own my own small business providing Document Destruction services across the great State of Wyoming.”
“I have a lovely wife of 18 years and two High School teenage boys. Together we love to experience everything Wyoming has to offer including hunting, fishing, livestock and hobby farming.”
The things Walt finds most important are “God, family, friends, service to the community, and a love of my state and country!”
Thanks for all you do Walt!
