Forty years ago in the April 16, 1986 issue of the Forest Park Review, it was announced that Capt. Thomas Walsh, a 26-year veteran of the Forest Park Fire Department, was about to be appointed the new fire Chief. In that same week, Dr. Lori Lipkin opened Forest Park Foot Care on Madison and ironworkers topped off the steel framework of Forest Park Middle School. Construction was on schedule for the new building, aiming to open in January of 1987.
