    Bob Engel was a founding member of pur LAFD Sertoma Club. He served for many years as the secretary-treasurer, and was involved in the ground work of setting up our Toys for Needy Children program. I got to know him about 20 years ago, when I started helping with the toy program. I visited Bob 3-4 times a year and he was a great storyteller. He was the CII at FS 80 (LAX) and was instrumental in helping develop the protocols for jet aircraft fires/evacuations. Many of those protocols are still used today not only at LAX but at many airports throughout the country. Another great firefighter gone home. “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

    Bob was a truly great man. He served as a Marine in WWII in the Pacific. Served on the LAFD and for many years as the Captain at Fire Stat
    ion 80 at LAX and as a board Member of the LAFD SERTOMA organization. Service to mankind was what he did through his lifetime for country, Los Angeles and people in need..
