MFD Thank Community For Evan Nesby's Celebration of Life

Middletown Firefighters thank the community for making the celebration of life a success

To all Middletown Residents,

On June 23, 2012, the Middletown Firefighters hosted a “Celebration of Life” for the late Evan Nesby. 

Evan was a wonderful child whose life was cut short by a very rare disease called Moya-Moya. On that beautiful afternoon, we as friends, family, and supporters gathered to honor Evan, just the way he would have like it!
