Chris Larmore, the former Ocean City fire chief who oversaw the merger of the department’s career and volunteer divisions, has died.
The Ocean City Fire Department (OCFD) announced his passing in a statement Wednesday.
“It is with our deepest regret that we announce the passing of Life Member 101, Past Volunteer Fire Chief and the Town of Ocean City’s first Career Fire Chief, Christopher N. Larmore,” the statement reads. “Chief Larmore answered his last alarm on August 5, 2025.”
Larmore assumed the role of fire chief in 2008, during one of the department’s most tumultuous periods.
