Recently, we had the honor of celebrating the retirement of Mr. Simone Di Presa after an incredible 35 years of dedicated service with Aviano Fire Department.

Throughout his career, Simone exemplified professionalism, commitment, and unwavering courage. His contributions have played a vital role in the strength, growth, and long-term success of our department, leaving a lasting impact on both his colleagues and the community he served.

Simone’s legacy is one of integrity, leadership, and selfless service. While his presence at the station will be deeply missed, his influence will continue to guide and inspire future generations of firefighters.

Please join us in thanking Simone for his remarkable career and wishing him all the best in this well-deserved next chapter.

Today we’re proud to recognize one of our own firefighters, Mr. Fabrizio La Marca, for his incredible commitment to our community.

This past October, Fabrizio played a key role in organizing and supporting Aviano’s “Corre in Rosa” campaign in partnership with the regional oncology hospital. With more than 6,000 participants dressed in pink, the 5K and 10K walk/run once again showed the strength of our community coming together to support cancer research.

Fabrizio has dedicated himself to this cause year after year—and today, that dedication has come full circle. Thanks to the funds raised from October’s event, the hospital was able to purchase specialized medical equipment used for ar**la micropigmentation. This procedure helps restore a natural appearance for women who have undergone mastectomies, playing an important role in rebuilding confidence, dignity, and a sense of wholeness during recovery.

This is more than fundraising—this is real, lasting impact on people’s lives.

Fabrizio, thank you for your passion, your leadership, and your unwavering commitment to serving others. You are truly a world-class community servant, and we are proud to stand beside you

Today we say farewell to MSgt Steven Soto, whose impact on the Aviano Fire Department over the past three years cannot be overstated. MSgt Soto has been instrumental to the success we’ve achieved, leading with integrity, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to developing our Airmen.

To many, he is affectionately known as the “Mayor of Aviano” or the “Assistant Chief of Everything,” always willing to step in, solve a problem, and make things happen for the good of the team. His leadership and dedication to the mission will be truly missed, and the standard he set will continue to guide us moving forward.

While we’re sad to see him go, we’re excited for him and his family as they head to their next assignment at Yokota.

Best of luck to you and your family, Steven!
