We want to welcome Firefighter Trent Powell! (April 2025)

Trent was born in Iowa and moved to Arkansas at a young age, where he later graduated from Lake Hamilton High School. Answering the call of duty, he proudly served in the U.S. Army, where his commitment to public service began.

Today, Trent works as a Technician at Futrell Marine, utilizing his skills to contribute to the company while continuing his dedication to his community. His passion for service extends beyond his career—Trent is an active member of the Lake Hamilton Fire Department.

An avid outdoorsman, Trent enjoys spending time in nature and cherishes every opportunity to be with his family. Above all, he is a proud father to his daughter and deeply values the time spent with loved ones.

Mickey was born in Youngstown, Ohio, and moved to Florida with his parents as a young child. He lived in Florida for many years, where he owned and operated a successful pressure washing and paver sealing business. Mickey was a firefighter with Hillsborough County Fire and Rescue for 20 years.

His decision to become a firefighter was inspired by a life-changing experience at the age of four, when he was involved in a serious car accident and had to be rescued from the vehicle by a firefighter. That moment left a lasting impression on him and sparked a lifelong desire to give back to his community and help others, just as someone once helped him.

In 2025, Mickey relocated to Hot Springs, Arkansas, with his wife, Sandy, and their son, Camden.

In his free time, Mickey enjoys spending quality time with his family.

Parker is originally from Hot Springs and graduated from Benton High School after relocating to Benton when he was 14 years old. After graduating from high school, Parker moved back home to Hot Springs.

From a very young age, he wanted to be a firefighter. His goal is to become a career firefighter. His first step towards that goal was joining Lake Hamilton Fire.

Parker currently works in construction and is one of six live-in firefighters at Lake Hamilton Fire.

Parker enjoys the outdoors. He likes to golf, fish, hunt, and to go camping.

Chris was born in Saline County and went to Bryant High School. Growing up, he spent summers at his family’s lake house on Lake Hamilton. 

In 2004, he enlisted in the U.S. Army and served 9 years in the Infantry with two deployments to Iraq. 

In 2019, he and his wife, Aubrey, moved back to Arkansas and settled in Garland County. 

Chris spends his free time going to the gym, riding his horse, and golfing. He is excited to be part of a team again and looks forward to serving our community. 

Ricky joined Lake Hamilton in January 2024. He lives in Diamondhead with his parents, sister, and grandmother (pictured). His number one role model is his father. Ricky is a family-oriented, grassroots, individual. 

Ricky began his life in public service at 14 when he joined the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) and served in CAP for 5 years. Ricky currently works at Walmart. 

He joined the fire service to gain as much knowledge as he could and become a part of something bigger than himself. He hopes to one day become a career firefighter. 

Ricky enjoys taking long walks in the evening and thrifting with his sister. He wants to get married one day and start a family.
