It was 50 years ago,  October 13th, 1967, when Fishers Assistant Fire Chief Raymond “Bud” Moulder was called to assist the Noblesville Fire Department  with a commercial fire in downtown Noblesville.  There was an explosion that collapsed a wall.  Chief Moulder pushed another firefighter from Westfield out of the way, saving the life of that firefighter at the cost of his own.

The Fishers Fire Department and Fishers Fire Foundation are planning a Celebration of Life and fundraiser in remembrance of the 50th Anniversary of Assistant Chief Raymond “Bud” Moulder’s death, on Saturday, October 14, 2017 from 12 noon to 3pm at Station 91, located near City Hall.

City officials will name the department’s Medal of Valor after Chief Moulder, as well as erecting the “Moulder Boulder” memorial outside Fishers Fire Headquarters.  The Fishers Fire Foundation  will be creating a scholarship fund in Chief Moulder’s name.  The Moulder family will be at the event.

The public is invited to be a part of this celebration.  City  Barbecue will cater the food.  Tickets are $10, or $40 per family.  Those under 3 years of age are free.  You can buy tickets in advance at this link, but you can also buy them at the event.
