An all-you-can-eat breakfast fundraiser is set for October 28 to support the Berks fire company following the deaths of its chief and assistant chief in a car crash. The event will take place at the fire company’s hall in Exeter Township, Pennsylvania, from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Proceeds from the fundraiser will assist the fire department in the wake of the unexpected loss. “This is a way for the community to come together and support those who serve us,” said a fire company representative.

The tragic accident occurred on October 14, when Chief John Doe and Assistant Chief Jane Smith were involved in a collision while responding to an emergency call. Both were pronounced dead at the scene, prompting an outpouring of grief from the community and surrounding areas.

In addition to the breakfast, donations can be made directly to the fire company to help cover expenses and support the families affected. The fire company has served the community for over 50 years, providing essential services and support during emergencies.

Community members are encouraged to attend the breakfast, honoring the two leaders who dedicated their lives to protecting others.

The fire company has set up a memorial fund to assist the families of the victims and is accepting contributions both online and through in-person donations.

Background information indicates that Chief Doe and Assistant Chief Smith were highly regarded figures within the community, known for their commitment and service to public safety.
