Sayville Fire Department will be hosting a blood drive on Friday, April 11th from 3:30-8:45PM 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. He was the Chairman of Sayville’s Blood Drive for about 20 years.

Wilbur himself donated 16 gallons of blood during his lifetime. 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 April 11th.

Not only will you take with you a feeling of knowing that you did a good thing, but you will also take with you a special donor coupon from Oysterman’s Restaurant and Pub in Sayville. Donors will be eligible for home safety kit door prizes, which will include a smoke detector/carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher.
