Bayonne closed off Avenue C in front of Fire Headquarters to accommodate the many well wishers that lined up for Deputy Chief Bill Bartos' retirement ceremony, November 13th. The well-respected chief served the city for 42-years. He was a police officer for three of those young years. The line-up included active and retired firefighters, the mayor, police chief, OEM director, members of the NJ Division of Fire Safety, area fire chiefs, family and friends. He left the firehouse ceremony riding in the department's 1944 Mack antique pumper.
