Hometown Hero of the Week: Jeff Newcomb, December 25th, 2024

Hometown Hero of the Week: Jeff Newcomb, December 25th, 2024

Our QDR Hometown Hero of the week is Jeff Newcomb, Volunteer with the Rosewood Fire Department.

Jeff is loved throughout the community. He is a great father to his two sons that are also volunteering along with their dad at Rosewood Fire Dept. He would give the shirt off his back if someone needed it. He is a cancer survivor 3 times with colon cancer. He retired after 30 years working with the state. He went right back to work. The man will not stay still, working is all he knows!” 

Thank you, Jeff, for your service! As a token of our appreciation, we’re sending you a $50 gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q and $50 from First Horizon Bank to thank you for all you do.
