A local Texas town is in shock today.

“Charlie was an outstanding firefighter, and friend to so many.
“One of the most dependable and hardworking individuals I have ever met.
“He will be sorely missed.”
In addition to working for the fire department for two decades, Krampota also worked for the Alvin Independent School District.
His most recent position was an MEP Manager in the Maintenance Department.
