The George H. Kane Memorial Award stands as one of the highest honors presented by the Howard Volunteer Fire Company. Established in memory of George H. Kane (1920–1986), a 45-year active member whose unwavering dedication, leadership, and loyalty left a lasting impact on our department, this award recognizes members who exemplify those same values in their service. Each recipient embodies the principles George lived by — selfless commitment, quiet strength, and a relentless drive to support the company and community. Below, we honor those who have carried his legacy forward.
