Fire fighter Hollifield completes a 17-year career

Walhalla’s Mark Hollifield has ended 17 years with the fire department with his resignation. “We will get thru this,” is what Chief Brandon Burton said to the mayor and three members of the city council. It’s an indication that Hollifield and his expertise will be missed at the fire department. Burton says Hollifield’s departure means the department has lost a captain, fire investigator, training officer, and mechanic.
