We are sad to announce the passing of member Matt Bartles. After a long courageous off and on again fight with Cancer, Matt succumbed to his battle earlier this week.

Matt was a dedicated member to our department who was always willing to lend a hand anytime someone needed help. Although Matt was not an interior firefighter, he was appropriately and proudly nicknamed Gopher as he would always be our “grab this or grab that equipment guy!”

His dedication to the department and his community was something he was very proud of. He will be missed dearly by all of us!

Rest Easy Brother, we’ll take it from here! Thank you for your years of service to the Rush Fire Department and the Rush Community!

Please keep Matt’s family in your thoughts and prayers!
