Longtime Stephenville fire chief reflects on career, retirement
Stephenville Empire-Tribune
Retiring Stephenville Fire Chief Jimmy Chew says he started working at age 11 when he had a newspaper route for the Empire-Tribune.
Now, after several other jobs, including an impressive 50 years with the fire department, Chew's response when asked what he was going to do in retirement was simple: "I don't know," he said with a chuckle.
A retirement event for the longtime chief is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Friday at the City Hall at City Limits, 1907 E. Washington St. Dress is casual (no uniforms, please).
Those planning to attend are asked to let organizers know at RSVPCHEW@aol.com by the end of the day on Wednesday.
