On May 1, 2019, there will be a Memorial Service for Kentland Life Member, FDNY firefighter, and United States Marine Corps Staff Sergeant, Christopher Slutman. This will be a Memorial Service with full Fire Department Honors.

The Memorial Service will be held at 1300 hours at the University of Delaware, Bob Carpenter Center.

Apparatus and uniformed personnel must be at the Bob Carpenter Center by 1100 hours on May 1. Apparatus is to approach the Carpenter Center from the south and will enter the apparatus parking area through Entrance “A” which is the first entrance to the UD Athletic Complex on S. College Ave. north of DE Rt. 4 (Chestnut Hill Rd.). Personnel will be directed to a staging area and will be briefed on the event. Adherence to the 1100 arrival time is paramount to the success of this tribute to FF Slutman and his family. Any fire department, law enforcement, or EMS personnel arriving in their own vehicles should follow signage on S. College Ave. For event parking, non-uniformed personnel and the general public should be in their seats in the Bob Carpenter Center by 1230 hours. Uniformed personnel will be in ranks and will enter the venue after the arrival of the family of FF Slutman.

We encourage all to attend – please join us in honoring Chris.
