They were the first on scene of a devastating fire December 7th, 2011 where three people perished, and this past thursday they were honored for their actions in that trying time.  The West Webster 6 didn’t know what they would be facing when they responded for a house fire with the possibility of people trapped but that night they all acted with professionalism and a heroism that makes all their brother and sister firefighters proud.  In recognition of the actions taken that night West Webster Chief James Deisenroth named Firefighters Justin Bassett, Dan Franklin, Bill Lang, Russ Perrone, Nick Volo, and Nick Wolfe as Firefighter of the Year.
