Our hearts are heavy, and our spirits are mourning as we at Ron & Sons extend our deepest condolences and unwavering support to our brothers and sisters at the Mount Arlington Fire Department, as well as to the family and friends of Firefighter Diego Escobar, whose life was tragically cut short.
There are no words strong enough to capture the sorrow that follows the loss of a firefighter – a protector, a servant, a hero. Diego Escobar was all of that and more. He wasn’t just a man in uniform — he was a brother, a friend, a role model, and a light in the darkest of moments. Known for his selflessness, courage, and deep dedication to serving his community, Diego stood tall in the face of danger so that others could live in peace.
A True Public Servant
Firefighter Escobar wasn’t just part of the Mount Arlington Fire Department — he was a pillar within it. With every alarm, every call, every response, he put others before himself. He chose a path that few have the heart to walk, and he did so with honor, integrity, and unwavering purpose. Whether it was battling flames or offering comfort at a chaotic scene, Diego showed up — ready, willing, and strong.
He exemplified what it means to be a firefighter: brave, humble, and fiercely compassionate. Those who knew him speak of a man with a big smile, a bigger heart, and a relentless spirit. Whether on duty or off, Diego was always there for his team, his community, and his loved ones.
