FARMINGTON — One of the hardest days for Farmington Fire Chaplain Mike Pless was when he had to tell a family their father had died after he was hit by a car while filling his gas tank alongside the road.
“That was by far the most difficult day,” Pless said about the death of the 52-year-old man in August 2012.
But Pless, who is the pastor at First Southern Baptist Church in Bountiful, knew when he volunteered to be Farmington Fire Department’s first chaplain there would be days filled with tragedy.
