April 20, 2024 * Belle Johnston Community Center
Join us in bringing our community, family & friends together to celebrate the life of Richard Sheltra and raise money to support his foundation. We want to honor and recognize him for his commitment and dedication to our community.
Richard laid down his life while battling a multi-alarm fire in Pineville on Saturday, April 30, 2016. Please come out and show your appreciation and support for Pineville's fallen hero, who paid the ultimate sacrifice! Proceeds from this event benefits the Richard Sheltra Memorial Foundation which provides resources, equipment and scholarships for volunteer first responders. These were areas of great concern and empathy for Richard.
