The passing of Mike Wilson

, ,

I just wanted to get the word out there that we all lost a Great Man!  Mike Wilson passed away this weekend.  Mike had finished his EMS teaching career with Shasta College, was planning on finishing the build-out of the new Fire Training Facility at College of the Siskiyou’s, and was looking forward to retiring in Florida where he had recently moved his wife and family.  Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

He will be missed by all!
