North Carolina’s Firefighter Dustin Rohe joined French Broad Volunteer Fire Rescue in 2023, after previously serving as a volunteer in Pennsylvania and in Madison County, North Carolina. He is a devoted fiancé and father of three. In 2025, he attended the fire academy, where he earned his Firefighter and EMT certifications and secured a part-time position with FBFR during his training.

While in the academy, Dustin began experiencing pain he initially believed was related to a prior hernia surgery. After graduating, he accepted a full-time position with the Waynesville Fire Department and later joined FBFR full time in early April 2026. When the pain returned, he sought medical care and learned the condition was more serious. He is now scheduled for surgery on April 29, 2026, to remove two cysts believed to be cancer-related. With a projected recovery time of four to eight weeks and the possibility of additional treatment, Dustin and his family are facing significant medical expenses and financial strain. Let’s ease their burden and show them we’ve got their backs.
