It is with deep sadness that the United Communities Volunteer Fire Department in Queen Anne's County, Maryland, announces the untimely passing of Fire Chief Victor H. Size.

Through his position as Fire Life Safety Liaison and Emergency Management Officer with the Washington Metropolitan Area Transportation Authority, Chief Size was instrumental in providing significant training programs and hands on learning experiences involving subway operations to over 15,000 emergency services personnel locally and worldwide.
He is survived by his loving wife Laurie; children: Jamie, Carrie, Adam, Traci, Tiffany; and grandson Dominick

I remember the first time I met Vic. He was the easiest chief officer to get along with. There were several occasions where he drove the engine and forced me to ride the seat, what an experience. I learned alot from him and will miss him deeply.
