Andrew Zemaitis – Firefighter                  
Andrew joined the Butler Fire Department in August of 2016.  He currently has served the Borough for a little over 5 years.  FF Zemaitis successfully completed the NJ Division of Fire Safety Firefighter 1 Training Program several years ago.  He operated on our scenes as a Qualified SCBA/Interior Firefighter and takes part in a variety of activities we take part in.   
Andrew was born in Ridgewood in 1997 and grew up in Butler.  He was a graduate of the Butler High School Class of 2016.  Following High School, Andrew attended Montclair State University and Graduated in 2020 with a BS in Marketing.
Andrew’s current career is in Orthopedic Sales, which entails showing products and

innovations as well as consulting with and teaching Medical Professionals how to use these new products.  FF Zemaitis also spends time with Surgeons to provide Product and Technical support while they are using/installing the devices for patients.
Andrew does not have family on the Butler Fire Department, but his Grandfather was part of the Fire Crew at Givaudan Chemicals while he worked there. On top of the family ties to the Fire Services, FF Zemaitis joined our Department so that he could help others.  As with many of our members, he enjoys the feeling that when we are helping others, whether it be during one of the tough times in their lives or for something as fun as our Annual Tree Lighting in Butler, we are making a difference.
Andrew continues being an Active Member because he continues to enjoy protecting our Community and he truly loves the Camaraderie that he has found inside our Department and the Friendships he has gained.  As a member he has become part of the family who will always be there, not only to help the community, but to help our Brother and Sister Firefighters, at a moment’s notice when they need it.  Over the years, FF Zemaitis has spent countless hours Training, between the Fire Academy, Various Classes and taking part in Department Drills, aside from our Emergency Responses, in an effort to Better Himself and our Department.
We are privileged to have had Andrew as a member for the past 5 years and appreciate everything he has done.  We look forward to continuing to see what he accomplishes in the future!
Until our next installment, Stay Safe!
