It is with deep regret that the Ellington Volunteer Fire Department announces the passing of Life Member and former Assistant Chief Daniel Connors. Assistant Chief Connors joined the department in March of 1962 and served as an officer in the positions of Lieutenant, 2nd Assistant Chief and 1st Assistant Chief from 1971 until 1978. Our thoughts are with Chief Connors’ family and friends in this difficult time.
