Arrington Fire and Rescue announced the retirement of Assistant Fire Chief Frank Brown on Wednesday, celebrating his 19 years of service to Williamson County.
 
According to an AFR social media post, Brown joined the Arrington Volunteer Fire Department in 2002 and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in 2003 before he was later promoted to Captain and then Assistant Chief.

"Asst. Chief Brown will be remembered for his voice of reason and his ability to remain calm," AFR said in the post. "We look forward to seeing Asst. Chief Brown around the community and wish him good luck in his future endeavors. We know he is looking forward so spending more time with his grandchildren and traveling."
