Fire Marshal Janiszewski is one of several members retiring recently but he is noted, not only for his years of dedicated service to the Fire Marshal JaniszewskiDepartment, but also for the contribution he made to investigating and preventing fires for more than seven years. As the Departments top investigator, he sifted through the burnt remains of thousands of incidents and leaves with a proud conviction rate from those determined to be suspicious. "FM10" also instructed numerous children and elderly residents of the City on fire safety and what to do if a fire does occur.

Much that has already been said about Janiszewski doesn't need to be repeated except to say that he will be sorely missed. What hasn't been written are the personal memories that many of the Members have of him and those are the things we will remember most. He has been a good friend and colleague to us here at Readingpafire.com as well, both in his position as Fire Marshal and, prior to his promotion, as Firefighter on Engine 3 at the 3rd and Court Station. We are honored to know him and wish him all the best in his retirement, Congratulations!
