On June 7th, members of the Beachwood Fire Department were honored to be a part of the 200 Club Awards Dinner where Beachwood Firefighter Alfonso "Al" Weaver received the Meritorious Service Award.

FF Weaver was recognized for his 42 years of continuous active service with our department. During his tenure with us, FF Weaver has served in numerous positions, including Trustee and President. As an active member, FF Weaver is consistently one of our top responders, answering the most calls. One of those calls that stands out was on December 21, 1982, when FF Weaver and two other firefighters successfully rescued an unconscious 17-year-old boy from a residential structure fire.

FF Weaver has also served as an officer in both the Beachwood Exempt Firefighter's Association and the Beachwood Firefighter's Relief Association. In 2017, FF Weaver was recipient of the Fire Department's Chief Award. Today, FF Weaver serves as Captain of the Fire Police, Trustee and Chairman of the Bylaws Committee.

Congratulations FF Weaver! Thank you to the 200 Club for your support of emergency personnel.
