It is with great sadness that the Sault Ste Marie Professional Firefighters Association announce that honorary firefighter Julien Cote has responded to his last alarm, peacefully at the Sault Area Hospital on Sunday, June 15, 2025, at the age of 30.
Julien’s bravery and determination to beat the odds and overcome his disease was an inspiration to the entire department. We'll never forget you Julien, and we're better for having known you. But I make you this one promise, tomorrow when that bell rings, we will be back on the truck, because you were the bravest of the brave. Today we will be as brave as you, by not mourning you, but by celebrating your life.
