ORCHID: To Southington Township Fire Department Capt. Scott Bower for his professionalism and long history of leadership and mentoring that rightly won him this year’s Trumbull County Firefighter of the Year award from The Tribune Chronicle and SERVPRO. Bower, a firefighter for more than 40 years, distinguishes himself for his expertise and experience that dates back to round-the-clock service during the devastating May 1985 tornado that ripped through the county. Southington residents should consider themselves fortunate to have Bower as a committed public-safety servant. As his son, Southington Fire Chief Scotty Bower, put it, “He has always been a pillar here. Capt. Bower’s unwavering dedication has stood steadfast and has been an example of true community service.”
