                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 22, 2010

  Mr. CASTLE. Madam Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I pay 
tribute today to Kevin Wilson, the outgoing President of the Delaware 
Volunteer Firemen's Association (DVFA).
  President Wilson's career began with the Clayton Fire Company in 1974 
where he eventually became Chief and served on the Board of Directors. 
Throughout his distinguished career, President Wilson has served the 
community in a number of capacities. He is a past President of the Kent 
County Fire Chief's Association, the Kent County Volunteer Fireman's 
Association, and the Delaware State Fire Chief's Association. President 
Wilson retired from the Delaware State Police (DSP) after twenty years 
of service, and currently serves as a civilian investigator in the DSP 
Sex Offenders Unit.
  As President of the DVFA, Kevin's strong leadership guided the 
organization through a tough economy. President Wilson worked 
tirelessly to ensure DVFA was properly funded and provided the same 
wonderful firefighting and emergency response that the DVFA is known 
for.
  As President Wilson steps down I would like to extend my sincere 
gratitude for everything he has done for the DVFA and the State of 
Delaware.
