Buffalo Grove Firefighter/Paramedic John Kevin Hauber; January 6, 1967 – January 27, 2018 (more)

From the Buffalo Grove Professional Firefighters and Paramedics Local 3177 Facebook page:

The Buffalo Grove Professional Firefighters and Paramedics Association (BGPFFPA), Local 3177 of the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF), has set up a trust fund at First Midwest Bank benefiting the children of Buffalo Grove Firefighter/Paramedic John “Kevin” Hauber.
Kevin passed away Saturday January 27, 2018 after a four year battle with colon cancer leaving behind his wife and four daughters.
Kevin was a career firefighter/paramedic with the Buffalo Grove Fire Department with almost 24 years of service and answered numerous calls to help others. But more importantly Kevin was a devoted husband and loving father of his four girls. Now it’s our turn to answer the call to help his family.
Donations can be made at any First Midwest Bank branch or can be mailed to the Buffalo Grove Fire Department, 1051 Highland Grove Drive, Buffalo Grove, IL 60089. Checks should be written as follows, “Kevin Hauber Memorial Fund c/o BGPFFAPA”
