CLINTONVILLE, WI—The FDNY recognized Seagrave Fire Apparatus, LLC for its dedication and support provided during the recent tragic events following Superstorm Sandy. The award was presented by Mark Aronberg, Assistant Commissioner for FDNY Fleet Services to A. Joseph Neiner Chairman and CEO of Seagrave Fire Apparatus, LLC during FDNY’s visit to Seagrave’s company headquarters.
A portion of the inscription on the plaque reads “FWD Seagrave Once Again Stepped up to Provide Much Needed Assistance to the FDNY, In Our Most Difficult Times We Can Always Count on the Men & Women of FWD Seagrave for their Continued Support.”
Seagrave has built a strong relationship with FDNY since first providing New York City with nine horse-drawn hose wagons in 1901. “Everyone at Seagrave is proud to support FDNY. Supporting FDNY is a 112-year tradition for Seagrave,” says A. Joseph Neiner. “The Seagrave relationship with FDNY continues today with the manufacture and delivery of high-pressure pumpers, squad pumpers, Aerialscopes, tractor-drawn aerial units, and other firefighting vehicles.”
“Your (Seagrave) commitment to us (FDNY) in this regard has been extremely generous. The actions of you and your team to ensure Seagrave was ready to address any need which we may have had during this difficult time is the mark of true professional exemplary businessman and good friend,” said FDNY Deputy Fire Commissioner John A.
