Sitting on a high stool is Shirley Mader, surrounded by a few Alburtis volunteer firefighters, fire police, Borough Council persons, friends and family to celebrate the first annual Bob Mader Day at Alburtis Fire Company social quarters on South Main Street in Alburtis. "We didn't plan anything this year, but will next year," Councilperson Sherryann Oels said. "I made brownies because Bob liked his sweets," Oels said. Mader was the former mayor of Alburtis who died Oct. 22, 2012.
