The Winchendon Fire Department mourns the loss of 36 year old Winchendon Firefighter Jason Hurton.
Both Jason and his wife Karen have been members of the Winchendon Fire Department call force for over 3 years. Jason has also served as a firefighter on both the Hopkinton and Upton Massachusetts Fire Departments before moving to Winchendon.
Tuesday evening FF/EMT Jason Hurton was discovered by his wife FF/EMT Karen Armstrong Hurton unresponsive at their home. Despite the best efforts by responding members and Heywood Hospital staff Jason passed away at the Heywood ER.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Karen and the family, may our brother Jason REST IN PEACE.
