On January 13, NHL Bruins and the Massachusetts State Lottery honored Norwood Firefighter Paul Ronco as Community All-Star. 

On top of his firefighter service, Ronco teaches fire safety in Norwood schools and has recently taken charge of the Professional Fire Fighters of MA Pan Mass Challenge Team. Paul raised over $200,000 for firefighter cancer research and is planning to retire this winter.

A loss to Norwood but a well-deserved retirement!
