    Cottonwood AZ (December 23, 2015) – Engineer Seth Murphy was recently promoted to Fire Captain through a competitive promotional process.

    Captain Murphy was born in Clarkdale and graduated from Mingus High School.  Murphy has been married to his wife Cathy who is a nurse at Verde Valley Medical Center for 12 years. They have four children – three sons and a daughter, Thomas 10, Patrick 9, Rory 7, and Collin 3.

    20151213_vvfdMurphy’s career and passion for the fire service started growing up in Clarkdale as he spent many hours around the fire station because his dad was a volunteer firefighter.  Murphy started at Verde Valley Fire District (VVFD) in 2006 after working for the Cottonwood Fire Department for 7 years.

    In 2010 he was promoted to Engineer and now promoted to Captain.

    Murphy feels like the luckiest guy in the world because he has the greatest family ever and also feels he has the greatest job in the world as he works for the safest and most progressive fire district in Arizona.

    Murphy was pinned with his Captains badge by his father Tom Murphy at the December 22nd  Board Meeting.

    Seth is every part of the success of our Fire District with his involvement and dedication to not only his personal responsibilities but also as a mentor for his colleagues.  The VVFD is very proud of Captain Murphy’s accomplishment and wishes him a safe and healthy career.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
