Fanwood Auxiliary Police Officer Jack Ross has been recognized as Congressman Tom Kean Jr.'s First Responders Hometown Hero, an honor celebrating first responders who go above and beyond in service to their communities. A fixture in Fanwood for decades, Ross has dedicated countless volunteer hours to supporting the Fanwood Police Department, assisting with community events, traffic control, public safety operations, and countless civic activities that help keep residents safe.
His unwavering commitment to volunteer service has previously been recognized by the Borough of Fanwood, which proclaimed "Jack Ross Day" in his honor, acknowledging his decades of selfless contributions to the community. Ross's latest recognition from Congressman Kean shines a well-deserved spotlight on the often-unsung work of auxiliary police officers, whose dedication, professionalism, and willingness to serve make them invaluable partners in modern policing.
As VLEOA has long recognized, auxiliary officers like Jack Ross demonstrate that volunteer law enforcement is built on a simple but powerful principle: communities are stronger when citizens step forward to serve. Congressman Kean's First Responders Hometown Heroes initiative recognizes exceptional first responders nominated by their agencies for outstanding service to their communities.
