The New Haven firefighters union Thursday shared the news that firefighter Jaime Polite passed away from pancreatic cancer:
It is with a very heavy heart that Local 825 announces that Jaime Polite passed away early this morning. Taken from Scotte Pullen: “Jaime Polite lost his battle with cancer earlier this morning. He fought it in a respectful & dignified way. He knew it was almost time & his love for family he needed to be home with his wife & kids & make sure they’re ok before he went to see The Lord, even called his Pastor to pray over him yesterday, Great Man up until his final moments here.”
As more information becomes available we will forward it to our members. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
RIP Jaime Polite & God Bless!
