The Final Ride for Chief John Mauro Sr., July 7th, 2023 (Gallery & Audio)

On Friday, July 7th, 2023, the Mauro family, friends, and the Paterson Fire Department shared a farewell ride with the Retired Chief of the Department, John A. Mauro Sr.

Starting at Festa Memorial Funeral Home, to Our Lady of Pompeii R.C. Church for Funeral Mass, and a final ride from Our Lady of Pompeii, stopping at Paterson Fire Headquarters, where Paterson Dispatch sent a special final message over the air on Fire Dispatch channel, honoring the Chief of the Department (callsign Car 5-0 at the time), and his turnout gear sat in memorial.


Then a final ride past Hillcrest Firehouse, onto Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, where Chief will rest in a family Mausoleum.

Our hearts go out to the Mauro family; we thank the Passaic County Emerald Society, Totowa Police, Paterson Police, Passaic County Sherriff, Paterson Fire Honor Guard, Battalion Chief Michael Trommelen, and our brothers from Riverside Firehouse Tour 2 for their part in the dayā€”a special thank you to all PFD members who assisted in Casket Watch duty throughout the viewing process.
