Honoring Chief Pete Batton: Support His Family
Our hearts are heavy. This past Saturday, we lost a true pillar of our community and a hero to so many.
Former Fire Chief Pete Batton, a dedicated firefighter still actively serving, was tragically killed in an off-duty vehicle accident. While stopped to make a left turn, another vehicle rear-ended him, and he died instantly.
Chief Batton gave over 30 years of his life to protecting North Carolina, leaving behind a legacy that will inspire us for generations to come. Now, it's our turn to stand by his family.
Pete's children are shouldering the entire financial burden of his passing while they await the life insurance process. We can't let them carry this weight alone. Our goal is to ease their burden in any way possible.
Join us in supporting Chief Batton's family during this incredibly difficult time.
Your donation will directly help his children with immediate expenses and allow them to grieve without added financial stress.
Donate now and honor a true hero.
