The Officers and Members of the Second District Volunteer Fire Department & Rescue Squad, Inc. are saddened to announce the passing of Joseph "Bubby" Knott of Great Mills on January 4, 2024. Bubby Knott was a past member of the Department as well as serving as a member on the Board of Directors several years ago. Bubby's business, Great Mills Trading Post Company, Inc. was the general contractor for the construction of our new Fire/EMS station. He personally, along with his staff, contributed much needed advice and suggestions during the construction phase. He was well known as a philanthropist and was always extremely generous to our organization in every way possible. Please keep Bubby's family in your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Arrangements will be forthcoming.
