Middletown Firefighters Local 336

Today we welcomed friends, family and colleagues to celebrate Lieutenant Steve Riley’s retirement party. Lt. Riley, has been with Middletown Fire since before a good portion of our members were even born ( May 6th, 1992).

Lt. Riley was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in 2017 and has spent a majority of his time as the officer at Station 83 and most recently Station 85 on 1st Platoon. Lt. Riley has been a mentor for many of the members we have today and his impact will be felt for many years after his retirement. He has brought countless laughs with his humor and carried his vast experience and knowledge to calls for service all these years.

He is a Middletown native, veteran and has spent most of his life serving others. We thank his family for supporting him for all these years and we hope they enjoy retirement.

Thank you Lt. Riley, you will be missed!

In May of 1992, Steve Riley was hired with the Middletown Division of Fire. Fast forward 34 years today, Lt. Steve Riley works his last full shift. Pictured with Lt. Riley is 1st Platoon his platoon for many years.

Over the span of 34 years, you likely have had an interaction with Lt. Riley. Whether you live in Middletown and once relied on his help in a time in need, have interacted with him in the fire service or you worked alongside him at some point.

With that being said we would like invite you to celebrate the retirement of Lt. Steve Riley on June 19th, 11:30am at Fire Headquarters!
