It is with deep sadness that the members of the National Park Fire Department extend our heartfelt condolences to the members of Malaga Fire Company and the family, friends, and loved ones of Firefighter Robert “Bobby” Reider.

Bobby’s dedication, service, and commitment to his community will not be forgotten. The loss of a firefighter is felt throughout the entire fire service, and today we stand with our brothers and sisters at Malaga Fire Company as they mourn one of their own.

Please keep Bobby’s family, the members of Malaga Fire Company, and all who knew and loved him in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Rest easy, Bobby. 🖤❤️
