Richard Ray
Episode description
33 years of combination experience 3rd generation Firefighter. Battalion Chief for A shift in the 4th Battalion for the City of Durham Fire Department. Firefighting is in the bloodline for the Ray family so it was inevitable that Richard was going to gravitate towards it. Going career wasn’t exactly what Richard planned but it was in his cards. If you ever get a chance to hear Richard speak when you do there is no doubt that he truly loves the job and wants anyone around him to be better versions of themselves. To get there one must find or seek out that mentor who can show you a side of yourself you didn’t know existed. One of my favorite quotes from Richard is “ If we’re going to be aggressive Firefighters, It can’t just be lip service.”
