In memory of our fallen Brother Fire Control Worker and Local 1364 member Bryan Banister

Brother Banister was killed when his vehicle became disabled while traveling on I-5 to San Francisco. Bryan and his vehicle were struck by another vehicle that left the road for unknown reasons. Also killed was Rigoberto Gomez Cortez, a good Samaritan that came to Bryan's aid. Representatives from Local 1364 and VCFD attended Mr. Cortez funeral and provide assistance to his family. Like our brother Bryan, The man that lost his life coming to his aid will not be forgotten.
