The Sayville Fire Department will be hosting a blood drive on Tuesday, September 11th from 3:30-9PM in memory of Honorary Captain Wilbur Ritter, who perished in the line of duty after responding to an alarm on Main Street on August 28, 2006.

Wilbur was the Chairman of Sayville’s Blood Drive for about 20 years. He passed away just before the Sayville Fire Department’s first 9/11 blood drive.

He was so passionate about blood donation that as the ambulance doors were closing, his last words to his fellow firefighters were “make sure you get the blood drive signs up.”

Please take a little time out of your day donate blood on September 11th. Not only will you be a hero for donating blood, you will honor one of our heroes…Wilbur Ritter.

All donors will be eligible for home safety kit door prizes, which will include a smoke detector/carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher.

In addition, donors will receive special donor coupons from Oysterman’s Restaurant and Pub.
