Michael Perry for his twenty-three years of service to the Melvindale-
Dearborn Consolidated Fire Department, on the occasion of his 
retirement.

in his dedication to public safety and the well-being of his neighbors.

fire fighter. Shortly after, he was promoted to Firefighter II, and was 
ultimately promoted to Firefighter III. With an unimpeachable record of 
service, Michael Perry has been acknowledged for his flawless

honors by his peers, including a Certificate of Special Recognition. 
His commitment and outstanding service have been recognized by
