It is with great sadness that the Taunton Fire Department announces the passing of Past Chief and Life Member James “Jim” Riley. Jim served the Taunton community for several decades including serving as Chief from 1975 to 1976. Upon his retirement from active service, Jim would always make it a priority to stop by the fire station when in town to check in on new updates, new equipment or to have conversations with his colleagues. You could always tell from the moment he walked through the door the amount of pride he had for this department.
We ask for your thoughts and prayers for his fire department colleagues, friends and most of all his family during their time of mourning. Rest In Peace Chief.
