Redmond Fire & Rescue

Michael Kienzle dedicated his life to serving others, both as a firefighter-paramedic and as a mentor to young athletes in his community. In early 2024, Michael was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer, T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Despite intensive treatment and months of perseverance, Michael faced this challenge with the same strength, resilience, and determination that defined his life and career. Sadly, on June 7, 2026, his courageous battle ended as he passed away peacefully, surrounded by family and close friends. This blood drive honors his legacy of service, compassion, and strength, which will never be forgotten.
