Sad News from HFD
Saturday, August 29th, 2020

The members of the Hamilton Fire Department regret to announce the unfortunate and untimely death of Clark Perkins. Valued member of the Hamilton Fire Department, Colgate University Class of 2018 and Marine Corp 1st Lieutenant.

We Have no words to describe how much he will be missed.

Talented, polite, attentive, genuine and loyal are just a few words we could use to describe Clark. He always carried with him a sense of duty in his words and actions as a member of the Hamilton Fire Department. Above all else, a true gentleman.

Our deepest condolences go out to the Perkins Family, RIP Brother-we will take it from here.
