It is with great sadness that the Little Silver Volunteer Fire Company announces the passing of 47 year Little Silver resident Ann Mihlon. Ann was an active member of the Little Silver Woman's Club as well as the local Board of Health and St. John's Episcopal Church. She began her career as a Dispatch for the Little Silver Police Department in 1980 and served with distinction until her retirement in 2010. In the recent years, she was affectionately called "Mum-Mum" by the town's firemen, EMT's, and police officers, acting as a mother and grandmother to most of the towns public servants. Our condolences are especially offered to her two sons, Little Silver Councilman Dane Mihlon, and West Long Branch Police Captain Lawrence Mihlon; and her daughter Hawkwood School Principal Dana Giblin-Guest. We also offer our sympathy to Ann's grandchildren, including Little Silver Police Patrolman and Assistant Fire Chief Peter Giblin, and Little Silver EMS member Taylor Giblin.A memorial gathering will be held on Tuesday, January 31st from 3-5 and 7-9 PM at the John E.

Saturday, December 10, 2011 Around 13:00hrs, Stations 23-1 was dispatched to a structure fire at 28 Carriage House Lane. Police units arrived on location and advised that the first floor of the residence was heavily involved in fire. Engine 2377 arrived on the scene in minutes establishing their own water supply. Crews initiated an interior attack but were forced out by deteriorating fire conditions. Command made the switch from offensive to defensive calling in multiple truck companies to utilize their ladder pipes. In addition, mutual aid companies were called in to assist with the fire attack and drafting operations. The Little Silver Fire Department would like to thank all the departments that came to our aid during this incident.
