City of Terrell Hills Fire Department

Today we proudly recognize two of our own for an incredible milestone of service to our community. 👏🏼

Please join us in congratulating Captain Ashley and Lieutenant Gonzales on reaching 20 years of dedicated service with the City of Terrell Hills (2006–2026).

Over the past two decades, both have shown unwavering commitment, leadership, and professionalism—serving not only as firefighters, but as mentors, role models, and pillars within our department. Their impact can be seen in the lives they’ve touched, the crews they’ve led, and the standard of excellence they continue to uphold every day.

Thank you, Captain Ashley and Lt. Gonzales, for your service, sacrifice, and dedication to this profession and our community.

Here’s to 20 years—and many more to come. 🚒🔥

Big thanks to Waymo for coming out and spending some time with our crew today 👋🏼

We had a great training learning more about their vehicles and how they operate, especially from a first responder standpoint. Always a plus getting hands-on and asking real-world questions.

We also appreciate our neighboring departments for joining us—always good to train together and stay on the same page.

Looking forward to seeing this technology out in our city and continuing to learn how it fits into what we do every day. 🚒🤖

Another icy day 🥶 in Terrell Hills! Be cautious when stepping outside or driving. ❄️

Firefighter Ramirez partnered up with the City of Live Oak to help them with a car seat installation event. Thank you for representing our department well and always willing to help where needed!

Officer Jerry Atkinson proudly represented the City of Live Oak at the Back-to-School Car Seat Checkup event held Saturday, July 26 at San Antonio Behavioral Healthcare Hospital. It was blazing hot, but he was more than happy to be there in service of our community and the safety of our little residents.

Officer Atkinson has been a certified Child Passenger Seat Technician since 2010 and recently renewed his certification this past May. Each car seat check takes about 30 minutes, and he's happy to assist any parent or caregiver who needs one. IT'S A FREE SERVICE! Just call the Live Oak Police Department to schedule an appointment at 210-945-1700.

A big shout out to Firefighter D. Ramirez II from the Terrell Hills Fire Department for teaming up with LOPD at the event. And a special nod to Councilmember Ed Cimics, who shares the same certification and took the original training course alongside Officer Atkinson.

Helping families and keeping kids safe is always worth the sweat.
