Division Chief Kenny Armstrong

Why did you join the Hendersonville Fire Department?
I joined the Hendersonville Fire Department in 1974 with the hopes
of helping others in their time of need. I enjoy being a
part of watching our city grow and knowing that I have
played a part in that development.
What do you like most about the Hendersonville Fire Department?
What I like most about the HFD is definitely my working relationship
with all the city employees.
What is the most significant development in your career?
I’ll have to say that throughout my career the most significant
development would have to be my expertise on Thermal
Cameras and being a part of helping to ensure better
safety requirements with the equipment.
Any community activities?
I am very involved with my church and love coaching Little
League Baseball. Other hobbies include golfing and
working with children.
What are your future plans?
At this time I have no major changes other than just getting
my son through college and getting back to coaching
Little League Baseball. I enjoy spending time with my
wife of 30 years, Karen and my son Mickey
who is attending Union College in Jackson.
