At his going away gathering on the 9th of July, Capt. Espinoza was visited by several members of the community as well as over 100 firefighters whom Capt. Espinoza had previously worked with throughout his career. A breakfast and lunch was served to over 125 people who got to see a video compilation of images spanning his career. It included a news report showing him in civilian clothes on the roof of a burning home testing for weak spots with his trusty fire axe “Zeb”. He had been driving by, off duty, when he saw the smoke and flames. He called it in and rushed into action.
Captain Espinoza received several gifts from his friends, including a great looking letterman jacket from local resident and CERT member Krishna McKain, an Ipad and his retirement badge.
TNN and everyone in attendance wished Captain Espinoza a long and healthy retirement.
