A statement issued Tuesday by the Kern County Fire Department states, “On Monday, July 11, Kern County Firefighter Aiden Agnor passed away. ” KCFD Fire Chief Aaron Duncan says Aiden was loved and respected by all who knew him and “has forever impacted this department and our community for the better.”
“All Kern County Fire Department flags will be flown at half-staff until Firefighter Agnor is laid to rest,” says Duncan.
The union’s post identified Agnor as “a seasonal crew member assigned to our air ops program.” The page also notes Agnor’s step-father and uncle “are active members of our department.”
