Lambert's wife, Tracy, died of pancreatic cancer in 2019 months after his own diagnosis.
"It's been pretty tough," Lambert told WRAL News in November. "She was strong-willed and so have I been. We've got our own sense of humor, and that's what's gotten us through."
The Lamberts had two sons.
Lambert fought fires for 25 years.
According to the Chapel Hill Fire Department, Lambert also worked part-time with the City of Graham Fire Department as an engineer and volunteered for many years with the Cedar Grove Fire Department, serving as the assistant chief.
