A black ribbon is wrapped around the sign outside First Station 41 on Girod Street in Mandeville. Underneath it are pictures of a man fellow firefighters say left a big impact.
“We’re absolutely heartbroken right now,” said Jeremy Windom with St. Tammany Fire District Number 4. “Jason was absolutely incredible.”
Jason Comeaux spent the last six years as a firefighter and EMT for St. Tammany Fire District Number 4. He died Saturday. Friends say he was battling health issues.
“It’s a huge loss for not only me but a lot of the guys around the fire department,” said friend and fellow firefighter Spencer Bean.
