The OFD expresses our sincere condolences to the Millwood Fire Company, the Millwood Fire District, & the Gollogly Family. Past Chief & Past Commissioner Neil Gollogly was a true class act. A friend to many and a pillar in his Department & Community. His love for the Fire Service and his company was like no other.
Rest Easy Sir
From the Social Media Outlets of the Millwood Fire Company:
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of 60+ year Life Member and Ex-Chief, Neil Gollogly.
Neil grew up in the Sleepy Hollow / Tarrytown area and served in the United States Navy. He held many roles within the fire company, including Chief, Safety Officer, Company President, Company Treasurer and longtime Vice President of our Benevolent Board of Directors. He also served on the Board of Fire Commissioners, and was instrumental in securing the property and getting Station 2 built.
Outside of Millwood, Neil was a lead organizer of the Westchester County Parade Judges Association, serving as a Charter Member, Chaplain, President, Vice President, and Chief Judge.
We will miss Neil for his knowledge, voice of reason, kindness, and especially his infectious smile around the firehouse.
