Friends and family gathered to remember 62-year-old Buckeye Fire Chief Bob Costello on Wednesday at Thompson Funeral Chapel in Goodyear.
âEven from the hospital bed, infected with COVID, he was still worried about the citizens of Buckeye and the firefighters and fire department getting vaccinated and taken care of,â says Community Paramedicine manager Robert Garza with the City of Buckeye Fire Department.
Chief Costello battled the virus for months but never let it show. He also never left his duties aside, leading people to believe he was doing better.
