Firefighter, fire marshal, dispatcher, deputy chief and engineer are among the positions Charles Hornberger held.
On June 30, Hornberger responded to his last call with Milmont Fire Company in Pennsylvania.
Not feeling quite himself when he got to the station, he let someone else drive the truck. He hung around for a while, and returned home where he suffered a heart attack, Milmont Chief Terry Burke Sr. said Thursday.
Hornberger never recovered, and died July 12 of complications.
