It is with tremendous sadness that the Beachwood Fire Department announces the passing of former Firefighter Mark Heeley. Mark joined the ranks of the Fire Department in 1980 where he served alongside his father, Paul Heeley. Mark served the residents of Beachwood until 1989 and became an Exempt Member of the Fire Department. Mark was also a member of the New Jersey State Firemen's Association and Beachwood Exempt Firefighter's Association. Mark moved from the area and lived in North Carolina until returning to Ocean County a few years ago. Upon returning to New Jersey, Mark returned to our Fire Department to assist at fundraising events in support of the fire company and exempt association. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Heeley family. Rest easy brother, we got it from here.
