Hello, I am Brett Bobe, Fire Chief of the Vincennes City Fire Department! I was born in 1986 to Larry and Donna Bobe, graduated from Lincoln High School and attended ISU and VU. I started in construction, became City Inspector, then joined the Vincennes City Fire Department in 1998. I married Lynne Ruppel in 1990 and we have 3 children, Cody, Allie, and Joe. We are also blessed to have Cody’s wife, Madison, and our granddaughter, Poppie Wren, in our lives! In my spare time, I enjoy running our BobeBQ business and helping keep the tradition going with Bobe’s Pizza together with my family. My life goals are helping others and supporting our community so that it is a thriving place, and a place where our children are happy to call home. I feel like I missed the boat, because I always wanted to be like John Wayne, John Travolta, and Larry Bird. I didn’t become a cowboy or disco dancer, and played football instead of basketball. So bear with me and wish me luck, because i’m going to need it while Dancing with the Stars!
