Mrs. DINGELL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Captain Paul McKeever on the occasion of his retirement from the Dearborn Fire Department after over 25 years of service to the City of Dearborn, Michigan, His significant service to our community is worthy of commendation.
Captain McKeever began his career in public service as a United States Marine stationed at 29 Palms, California and later was stationed across the state of Michigan. After transferring to the Marine Corps Reserve, Captain McKeever became a member of the Dearborn Fire Department in August 1995. He continued to serve in both military and civilian firefighting capacities until 2017 when he retired from the Ohio Air National Guard with the rank of Master Sergeant.
Captain McKeever joined the Dearborn Fire Department in 1995 and was promoted to Fire Lieutenant in 2007. On June 5, 2012 he was promoted to the role of Captain. A committed leader always willing to go the extra mile for his team, he is a graduate of the Eastern Michigan University School of Fire Staff and Command. Over the course of his extensive career, Captain McKeever has been the recipient of countless awards for excellence in service including the Fire Chief Life Saving Award, Fire Officer of the Year, multiple Meritorious Company Commendations, and a 2019 Certificate of Special Recognition,
Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Captain Paul McKeever for his exemplary 25 years of service. He has effectively and selflessly served the City of Dearborn in his role as Chief of the Fire Department and has been steadfastly dedicated to the safety of our community. I join with Captain McKeever's family including his wife Meryl and children Paul, Ian, Liam, Grace, and Emma, friends, and colleagues in extending my best wishes to him in retirement.
