CONGRATULATIONS OFFICER STEINMETZ
Chief Bryan Kelly and the members of the Shaler Township
Police Department would like to congratulate Officer Gregory
Steinmetz on his retirement after 28 years of service. During his
tenure, Officer Steinmetz has served as a DARE Officer, a First
Aid and CPR Instructor, and maintained his certification as an
Emergency Medical Technician through the PA Department of
Health – EMS Division. He has remained an active member of the
Undercliff Volunteer Fire Company. Gregg and his wife Carol look
forward to spending their weekends at his family’s cottage and
enjoying time with their grandson.
