The statement, sent by department spokeswoman Cristie Kahler, said the family's "spirits are lifted with the knowledge that this community loved our Dad.
"He is being called a 'hero' for the job he did and the lives he saved. We have called him a hero for a long time-just for being our dad," it read.
"Our Dad died doing a job he loved, serving the community he called home."
