Community Recognition Statement - Tribute to Anatol Dangel

24 March 2022

Ms JENNY AITCHISON (Maitland) (15:47): I pay my respects to the family, friends and fellow volunteers of Anatol Dangel, a beloved and dedicated volunteer, formerly of the Maitland NSW State Emergency Service unit, whom we lost in October last year. Anatol joined the SES in the mid-1990s, after serving with the Royal Australian Navy as well as spending some time with the NSW Rural Fire Service. He delivered outstanding training and excellent dedication to the SES, often spending his days at the unit maintaining equipment and ensuring that the fleet was always ready to roll out the doors when the community was in need. He is well remembered for his unbeatable catering skills. In more than 20 years of service to the SES, Anatol filled a number of roles, from member to deputy officer. He attended not only local call-outs but also major events across our region and across the State, including the 1999 Sydney hailstorm, the 2007Pasha Bulker storm and Maitland floods, Cyclone Yasi in 2011, and the April 2015 super storms in the Hunter region. Anatol has, of course, been sadly missed in the current times. Vale, Anatol Dangel.
