YESTERDAY THE VFD RETIRED THE LAST OF THE CLASS OF 91’ (91er). ENGINEER MAYNARD CATIIS PROUDLY SERVED THE CITIZENS OF VALLEJO FOR 33 YEARS. A MENTOR, FRIEND, DIALED ENGINEER, DIALED TRUKMAN, AND SOLID FIREMAN.

MAYNARD IS THE SENIOR MAN YOU READ ABOUT AND ANY YOUNG FIREFIGHTER WOULD WANT. HE WAS NEVER GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR BUT WHAT YOU NEED TO HEAR. AN OG THAT ALWAYS KEPT IT REAL AND LEAD BY EXAMPLE ALWAYS. MAYN DAWG AS HE IS AFFECTIONATELY KNOWN COULD ALWAYS BE COUNTED ON THE FIRE GROUND. AN INSPIRATION TO COUNTLESS ASPIRING FILIPINO FIREFIGHTERS AND AN INSPIRATION TO YOUNG FIREFIGHTERS COMING UP. HE SOAKED UP GAME FROM THE GENERATIONS BEFORE AND PASSED IT ON AS QUICK AS HE COULD.

HE HAS LEFT HIS MARK ON MANY FIREMAN IN THE VFD AND HIS LEGACY WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE ON WELL BEYOND HIS RETIREMENT.

CONGRATS MAYN ON A WONDERUL CAREER , YOU’VE EARNED IT.
