Assemblymember Heather Hadwick recently honored long-time Cal Fire Chief Eric Ewing with a retirement resolution, recognizing his distinguished 38-year career in public service and fire protection.
Hadwick shared her appreciation for Chief Ewing’s decades of dedication to Lassen, Modoc, and surrounding communities across the North State, highlighting his leadership and impact throughout his career. Ewing officially retired in December of last year.
“It was an honor to present Cal Fire Chief Eric Ewing with a retirement resolution recognizing and thanking him for an incredible 38 years of service!” said Hadwick.
“When I first started my career in emergency services, Eric was serving at the Lassen-Modoc Unit, where he oversaw Lassen County OES through Cal Fire. Over the years, I’ve always appreciated his steady leadership, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to serving and protecting our communities. He has made a lasting impact across the North State and on so many of us who have had the privilege of working alongside him.”
Hadwick extended her best wishes to Chief Ewing as he steps into his next chapter following nearly four decades of service to the region.
“Congratulations on a well-earned retirement, Chief Ewing! Thank you for your decades of dedicated service and for everything you’ve done for Lassen, Modoc, and the surrounding communities. From the looks of it, you’re already enjoying retirement—and you’ve certainly earned it! Wishing you all the best in this next chapter,” Hadwick added.
