Life Member, Past Chief, and Fire Police Captain
It is with profound sadness that the Third District Volunteer Fire Company announces the Line of Duty Death of Life Member, Past Chief, and Fire Police Captain Edward “Ed” Margavich.
On August 15, 2025, Chief Margavich succumbed to injuries sustained while faithfully serving the community during an emergency response on Box 11-36 in Croydon earlier this month.

His legacy of service, sacrifice, and brotherhood will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
