October 5, 2022 - TR Fire District #1 - Commissioner Meeting
For the record m i
Or the record my name is Geri Ambrosio, | am the wife of former TR Fire District #1 commissioner and current TR
Fire Co #1 firefighter Craig Ambrosio
sin
eters Ub | have served asa judge every year the TR Fre Co #1 Halloween Parade has been held, therefore it has
ea nie 2 tradition and something | look forward to each year. For all the years | have served as a judge it has
SiwaVs been the practice that judges were invited back each year unless they could not or chose not to attend
Firefighter Craig Ambrosio who is the coordinator of the judges for the parade sent me a text earlier this week
informing me that | would not be invited back for what would have been my 22nd year as a judge. After my
decade's long commitment to the TR Fire Co #1 Halloween Parade the only reason, I was given for this decision
ls that he was angry that | had openly discussed his affair with Monica Bisceglie an employee of TR Fire District
#1, with whom he is currently on vacation in illinois. The consequences of firefighter Craig Ambrosio’s affair
Should be treated as a personal matter, and he should not use his position on the parade committee to retaliate
Bainst me by refusing to allow me to return as a judge for this year’s TR Fire Co #11 Halloween Parade
Firefighter Craig Ambrosio's retaliatory gesture isa delayed response to a conversation | had with Diane
Autenrieth, commissioner Mark Autenrieth’s wife, a year ago. Diane asked me if | was doing ok and | replied that |
was devastated that my husband firefighter Craig Ambrosio had been carrying on an affair with Monica Biisceglie,
an employee of TR Fire District #1 for many years, including during his tenure as commissioner. Since this affair
had been out in the public domain for some time and since Diane’s husband commissioner Mark Autenrieth had
asked me about the affair at a Xmas Party in December of 2019, | assumed she was aware of the situation and
that was why she had asked about how | was. | wasn’t openly discussing the situation, as anyone knows who has
gone thru this, an affair is not something anyone wants to talk about publicly as it is a very painful and
embarrassing situation, one that has caused a lot of stress and discomfort for me and for my entire family.
|. am here today to ask the Chief and the membership of TR Fire Co #1/ and or the Halloween Parade Committee
fo,intercede on my behalf. The affair going on between firefighter Craig Ambrosio and TR Fire District #1
ployee Monica Bisceglie should not be allowed to negatively impact my life beyond the destruction it has
dy caused to my marriage. The membership of TR Fire Co #1/ and or the Halloween Parade Committee
[not allow itself to become complicit in this action by allowing Craig Ambrosio to treat
trict and is there a defined policy in place? If so, please provide a copy of
#@ taken once the commissioners became aware of the affair
your service to this community.
