The Officers and Members of the Green Ridge Volunteer Fire Co would like to send there deepest condolences to the Chester Heights
Fire Company and the family of Sam Ward. Sam was a Charter Member of Chester Heights. During the course of his 59 year membership, he served as
Fire Chief for 28 years. Since his retirement as Chief, two of his children, son
Larry, and daughter Joan have gone on to serve Company 71 as Fire Chief. During
the 1960s, Sam was instrumental in developing what is now the Delaware County
Fireboard, and served on the county radio committee.
