Today, we remember the life of the late Jan G. Fassnacht, who passed away 27 years ago. Jan, a community servant who dedicated most of his life to emergency services.
The late Jan G. Fassnacht was a second generation fireman who started his volunteer career with the Ephrata Pioneer Fire Company and Ephrata Area Rescue. He then moved on to serve here at the Lafayette Fire Company where he achieved the rank of Lieutenant. Jan also served with the East Lampeter Township Ambulance Association.
On top of all of that, Fassnacht worked for the East Lampeter Township Police Department where he achieved the rank of Corporal.
Jan is remembered to this day with an annual fundraiser “Fasnachts for Fassnachts”, where the LFC and ELTPD generate funds for cancer prevention and research.
Both of Jan’s sons, Brett and Alec, serve the LFC to this day with their mother, Coral.
Lest we forget the life of Jan, a dedicated Husband, Father, and Community Servant.
