"I've thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Cornwall Fire Department and I am fortunate to have worked with a great group of individuals over the years, both in the fire service and within other city departments," said McCullough in a press release.
"Chief McCullough has done an outstanding job and his leadership will be missed," said Levac in the same release. "We wish him all the best in his retirement."
