Please join us in congratulating Rob Lowe on his new promotion to Captain!
Rob started his career as firefighter EMT in Quartzsite, Arizona in 1995, then graduated to Medic in 2007. He worked for AMR (ambulance company) for 15 years. In 2010, Rob joined Bouse Fire as firefighter / Paramedic.
In 2011, he moved to Bouse, where he married Becky in 2015. They have a combined family of 6 adult children and 11 grandchildren.
Over the years Rob has worn many hats for Bouse, such as Interim Chief, Asst. Chief, and he is currently our only Certified Medic. In addition, Rob also works for Parker Fire. The Engine pumper is one of the first projects that Rob and Chief Weatherford were able to secure at a very low cost to our District.
We are honored to promote Rob to Captain with Bouse Fire, effective April 2026.
We are very excited to have Rob as our new Fire Captain; we know he will continue providing our community the very best service and we can’t wait to see what else his new role will bring to our great fire district.
