James Kavanaugh was honored for his lifetime achievment in the fire service. Greg Dimon was honored for his years of service in the fire company.

Heroic Act by a Non-Firematic Citizen Award was awarded to Tracy Wisner of West Seneca. Mrs. Wisner was on scene of a motor vehicle accident which occurred in front of her residence. Her courageous rescue efforts of the victims on scene were well-deserving of this award.
