FACAP's ED MESHALKO DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD​
​
The Ed Meshalko Distinguished Service Award is named after one of FACAP's original members, whose dedication and devotion to FACAP was never ending. You may recall seeing Ed at the annual case review meeting, handing out arson hotline cards, yearly calendars and doughnuts. Or you may have seen Ed at the scene of a large fire loss or woods fire, providing water and sandwiches to firefighters who needed the break and nourishment. You could always recognize Ed by his Ford pick up truck that was covered with FACAP Arson Reward bumper stickers and reward posters.
Ed was never asked to perform these tasks; he took them upon himself, always in an effort to promote and serve our organization. In summary, Ed was FACAP and FACAP was Ed.
​
Ed retired from FACAP only upon his death on August 25, 2003.
​
To be presented with the Ed Meshalko Award is a great honor and it is only presented to active members of FACAP whose dedication and service to FACAP and its membership reflects and warrants that of its original recipient and namesake.
