Bob Stocker, a firefighter from Wood River, Illinois, founded Fire Safety, Inc. in 1968 after noticing that local businesses needed fire extinguishers. With support from his wife Mary, a few hundred dollars, and a 1954 Ford pick-up, Bob started the business in his basement.

We moved out of Bob’s basement a long time ago and that old Ford has been replaced by 20+ service vehicles which cover a large portion of Illinois and Missouri.

Fire Safety, Inc. remains a family-owned business; operated by Donna Karpan, Bob and Mary’s niece. Fire Safety’s employees are some of the best in the industry with many employees exceeding 30+ years of service.

The company strives to cater to all of its customers and their individual lumber needs. It delivers within a 60-mile radius, doing a lot of business on both sides of the river. With pride, the Fischers have watched their business continue to succeed and grow over the past 80 years in East Alton.

RBGA Small Business of the Month - June 2020

If you’re looking for a mortgage banker with years of experience and expertise in both the big picture and minutiae of home loans, you’ve found it all in Deb. Being in the industry since 1979, she’s specialized in about every phase of the home loan process, so her education isn’t one-dimensional. Because of this, she puts emphasis on passing knowledge to her clients about what’s going to happen at each step and prepare them for what’s coming in the next 30 or so years with their home loan. She understands that her clients often need flexibility with their loan terms, so her favorite program is the FHA loan program, which works with differing credit scores and less stringent terms.
