Firemen in Orange County
This page is dedicated to my Father, William Thomas Hubbard.
Everyone in Orange County called him "Buzz". He was a well liked and respected man around Orange.
He was a fireman for Orange the last eleven years of his life. He was taken from us in 1955. His pallbearers were all firemen and they bought his headstone with the Fireman's symbol on it. He was a fireman at all of the fire stations in Orange at one time or another in his career.
