Governor Hobbs issued the following statement:
"My deepest condolences go out to the Timber Mesa Fire and Medical District for another unimaginable loss in their community. We honor and remember Glenn Collins, and we will always appreciate his brave service to others. We mourn along with his family, his friends and our first-responders community."
Individuals, businesses and other organizations are encouraged to join in these tributes.
