Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 82 (Thursday, May 14, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 82 (Thursday, May 14, 2026)] [House] [Page H3469] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] RECOGNIZING FIRE CHIEF FRANK GUIDO'S RETIREMENT (Mr. BRESNAHAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. BRESNAHAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Fire Chief Frank Guido on his retirement after 46 years of dedicated service to the Kingston/Forty Fort Fire Department and the surrounding communities. More than four decades ago, Chief Guido answered the call, protecting lives and property through fire response, rescue, and emergency medical services. A native of Luzerne and a graduate of West Side Central Catholic High School, his commitment to service began early. He first served as a firefighter in Laflin and worked as a nurse's aide at Nesbitt Hospital, where he met his wife before joining the Kingston Fire Department in 1980. Before becoming chief, he played a key role in the 2007 regionalization and consolidation of ambulance and fire services, helping bring departments together and strengthening mutual aid across the region. On March 13, 2009, he was promoted to fire chief, where he led with steadiness and professionalism, further enhancing emergency response and earning the respect of colleagues across northeastern Pennsylvania. He and his wife, Ann, raised three children; Paul, Christopher, and Kelly, who share in the appreciation of his extraordinary career. Chief Guido's legacy is one of service, leadership, and commitment to others. ____________________
