Most people run away from danger, some run towards it to protect our community. His watch is over. Rest in peace.

Our thoughts are with the Binghamton Fire Department as they mourn the loss of Firefighter John "JR" Gaudet, who perished in the line of duty while battling a three-alarm blaze on February 12, 2025.

The Binghamton Fire Department describes JR as someone who "embodied what it means to be a firefighter—fearless, dedicated, and always putting others before himself. His infectious smile, unwavering positivity, and relentless work ethic made him a brother to all who had the honor of serving alongside him. He was the kind of firefighter you could always count on, the one who would have your back no matter the situation. At fires, he was a bull—always first in line to get inside. He would literally run through a wall for you. There was no one better to have by your side."

Please join us in sharing our condolences with his family, loved ones, and the entire department during this difficult time.

"Everything you love will probably be lost, but in the end, love will return in another way."
Embrace change. It's inevitable for growth. Together we can shift pain into wonder and love, but it is up to us to consciously and intentionally create that connection. Franz Kafka
