Liskeard firefighters gathered at the community fire station to say farewell to Tony Lewis, who has served the town for just over 10 years.

Tony was presented with a statue of a fireman, and a bouquet for his partner Chrissie, on behalf of his colleagues by Station Manager Danny Smith, who thanked him for his good service.

‘Tony was a great firefighter and a loyal friend, and he will be sorely missed,’ he said.
