I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. Played football with Lance at Phoenix College. I also went to Alhambra High . So many wonderful memories as we kept in touch through the years.  Just talked to him earlier this year.  Remember how he took out the front end of a car in his motorcycle accident, saw him at hospital and through his rehab.  He got me lifting at Jon Coles Gym in Tempe. Saw his son born and so much more .  The faith, life, the cars, his parents and family again cant say enough of my friend.  Last words we said to each other on the phone  were I love you .   Love You Lance   Your friend forever,   Steve Meyer   Will see you again !

Rest In Peace, Lance.  We will see you in Paradise!

Lance will be missed terribly by his South Carolina family. The last time I talked to lance was after my dad died and he prayed with me on the phone. 
Lance was looked up to by all of us kids and by a lot of the adults in the family. 
Lance  was a true hero, not only did he save lives as a firefighter but he saved lives with the word of our Lord.
He was so loved and touched so many lives. 
RIP my cousin. I know you are in the arms of Jesus along with your family 

Dear Lance SR. 
 You will be missed by many. You were always Bigger than life and were so much fun to be around..
When ever I roved into a station in which you were working, I always felt like I'd won the rover Lotto..
  I love your energy and enthusiasm for life..  I Loved talking to you about your Volvos, your Vette, your family and son..  I am so proud of Lance Jr. the only child of yours that I really knew.  I am looking forward to seeing him, and hearing about his life beyond the PFD.   I always wished I was him so I could inherit your vette. ;-)
 Condolences to  all your family and friends, and from all of us in your  Fire Dept. Family...  You will be greatly missed..  
 Look forward to the time when we can share again on the other side..  Shine on where ever you are, like you did for all of us down here on earth..  Keep the rubber side down and glide on.. ..** Love ya   Jack Johnson

Captain my captain !! Lance ...loved the way you carried yourself and took care of your crew . You always had a smile on your face and called everybody “brother” ... loved to hear stories bout your adventures and your son Lance jr. Roving in your station, visiting with you always made me smile 😊  your totally contagious!!  R.I.P..  as God is smiling with you tho good and faithful servant! 

My deepest condolences to the Mallow family. I met Lance years ago at Phoenix College. Being a young Catholic girl from St. Mary's High School, I had never heard the message of the gospel. Lance boldly shared his faith with me and I can honestly say that made all the difference in my life.  He not only shared the gospel, every time I had questions about salvation, he diligently searched for the answers to my questions and made sure to explain them to me; even if it meant him stopping by my house in Scottsdale when he was with The Scottsdale Police Department. He made sure my questions were answered.
I will be eternally grateful to God for his stand. His life mattered. 
With Sincere Sympathy,
Rita Hudgens

Lance my Brother, we have a lifetime of great memories to talk about when we inevitably meet again. I will miss you til then! Love you Brother RIP!! Condolences to all his family from Lori and I.

You loved The Lord and you loved and served people.  You have been a blessing in my life for 37 years and I am grateful to The Lord for you.  Now, no more suffering and no more tears.  You are in the presence of The Lord and will spend eternity in the arms of your heavenly father.  A blessed hope for all believers.

I never knew Lance to not have a smile on his face or a kind word to say. I will truly miss him. It has been said, “Immediately after you take your last breath on earth, you take your next breath in Heaven”.
God Bless you Lance

Lance’s kindness will always be remembered. Such a nice man. I’ll treasure the memory of the last time I saw him, standing with him and his Mom at the Courthouse Lighting in Prescott and seeing that great smile on his face... RIP my friend. 

Sorry to loose you in this present life.  Thanks for all the pep talks back when I was trying to get hired.  Until we meet again Vaya Con Dios my friend!

Lance, 

My best 2 memories with you are my first ride on a fire truck with you when I was 12 years old and when we flew together in your plane (the V-Tail Bonanza) and we almost crashed at the Page, AZ airport. I always remember you just smiling and saying “We got this brother - God is good!”. Thanks for being an amazing friend, neighbor, and a great role model for how to treat others. Whenever your name was mentioned, it was always followed by “what a great man”.
Rest In Peace brother and we will meet again someday my friend.

R. I.P Lance it was a honor to have worked with you on E-35 A . I was always looking forward to coming into work couldn’t of asked for a better crew... you may be gone but never forgotten...Semper Fi my friend.... 

Lance, you were one of my best friends, my medic class partner, my Captain and at times you drove me crazy, but I will always love you as my brother. 
Now you can rest from your disease  and worries. You were always there for me and you will ALWAYS be in my heart.


Rest In Peace brother Lance, you were a friend mentor and leader, thank you for your friendship and service . My deepest condolences to his beautiful family. 

"Lance Romance" you inspired me through the Fire Academy to perservere.  RIP Brother......God's Speed.

Brother, angel from heaven. TGB, Maryvale icon. Legend. RIP Dear Lance. 

I met Lance years ago when he was still a Fire Captain and mentored my son Dane, whose goal was to be a Phoenix Firefighter.  Dane is now working for the Phoenix Fire Department as a Fireman and Paramedic due to Lance's incredible heart and dedication.  Lance was such a wonderful mentor.  Through the years, I observed Lance's incredible love and respect for other people.  He was a wonderful man who deserved so much better than what he received in life.  I am comforted to know that Lance is now at peace with his Mom, Dad and sisters.  He deserves to be with a loving family.  We all miss you so much!

Lance .... 
Where do I start ? My friend since High School .. my confidant...my surrogate brother. 
His family impacted my life immeasurably including having Leo ( Lance’s Dad ) officiate at my wedding.
From crazy motorcycle rides up South Mountain ... to rides to school .... long talks over coffee at COCO’s and ultimately our paths crossing often when I was an Emergency Room RN and Lance a paramedic .
Busy lives and families took us in different directions but no matter how much time had passed we picked up right where we left off.
If you were fortunate enough to be his friend , you would be his friend for LIFE.
I will miss the kind and gentle soul hidden in the giant Bear Hugs from Lance.
My sincere condolences to his children and extended family.
Lance lived in anticipation of meeting the Lord and I can only imagine his joy now.
I will see you again my friend . God Bless You ♥️


I met Lance many years ago at St. Josephs Hospital when his dad was a patient there. I was working and joined the family in prayer for a speedy recovery for his dad. Today my prayers are for Lance's family and friends.  I'm so saddened by the loss of this special man.  May you all find peace during this very difficult time.
