Spokane Mayor David Condon issued the following statement regarding the death of Spokane Fire Department Lt. Terry Canfield:
“Terry’s death is a tremendous loss to the Spokane Fire Department and the entire community. Terry touched countless lives during his 28 years with the department. He will be remembered as a brilliant paramedic with a very compassionate heart. He dedicated his life to helping people by easing their suffering and improving their lives through medicine and training.
His colleagues talk about Terry as a man that put his family and faith above everything, and how evident that was the minute he started a conversation. He will be missed greatly by his family, friends, colleagues and others who had the good fortune to cross paths with him.”
