The St. John’s Fire District had the privilege of recognizing Gerhard and Hannelore Bohn with our Community Support Award.
For more than a decade, beginning in 2007, Gerhard and Hannelore purchased lunch for the entire Station 4 crew twice each month as a way of expressing their appreciation and gratitude for the firefighters serving our community. Their visits became much more than a meal, they took the time to personally connect with every member assigned to the station, building relationships and showing genuine support for our personnel.
Although age eventually made it difficult for them to continue their trips to the station, the impact of their kindness, generosity, and encouragement remains. Their unwavering support touched countless firefighters over the years and served as a reminder of the strong bond between our department and the community we are honored to serve.
Led by Captain Edmunds and Captain Mitchell, the members of Station 4 wanted to ensure Gerhard and Hannelore knew just how much their support meant to our firefighters and to the St. John’s Fire District as a whole.
On behalf of our personnel, thank you, Gerhard and Hannelore, for your years of kindness, friendship, and dedication to those who serve. Your generosity left a lasting mark on our organization, and we are grateful for the positive impact you have had on so many.

At approximately 5:10 a.m. this morning, St. John’s Fire District and our automatic aid partners responded to a residential fire alarm in the 5900 block of Maybank Hwy.
The first arriving company encountered heavy fire conditions on the Alpha-Delta side of the residence and upgraded the incident to a full structure fire response. Crews quickly brought the fire under control, conducted a search of the home, and confirmed that no occupants were inside at the time of the incident.
No injuries were reported.
The St. John’s Fire District Fire Marshal Division is currently investigating the cause of the fire.
