By Jen Ellingsworth
Eileen Doyle's family tree is
deeply rooted in firefighting.
She and her husband, Ted, met
at a state firefighting conference
in 1982. A Brandywine Hundred
native, Doyle said she was in-
volved with the upstate ladies
auxiliary some 29 years before of-
ficially joining the volunteer
group in 1971.
"I had two sisters who were
members," she said. "One of
them got married, so I took her
place."
While attending a statewide
conference in 1982, Doyle met her
husband, Ted, a firefighter of 45
years who retired as battalion
chief from the Wilmington Fire
Department after 30 years of serv-
ice. Her family of six stepchildren
and 10 grandchildren ranges in
age from 1 to 13 years of age.
Stepson Chris was recently pro-
moted to lieutenant of the Wilm-
ington Fire Department. Doyle's
husband serves on the board of the
International Association of Fire
Chiefs.
Now living in Rehoboth Beach,
Doyle serves as the president of

ments in the state," said Doyle,
who said the money pays for
equipment and maintenance of the
fire stations. "We raise the money
through events such as dinners,
receptions and bingo."
Doyle said she's met many life-
long friends through her associa-
tion with the firemen's auxiliary.
Delaware boasts a slate of 57 aux-
iliaries and a membership of near-
ly 3,000. The position of presi-
dent rotates by county in
Delaware.
She is an honorary member of
both the Rehoboth Beach Volun-
teer Fire Company and the Five
Points Fire Company in Richard-
son Park. Ted Doyle is a life
member of the Five Points Fire
Company and Eismere Fire Com-
pany and assistant treasurer of the
