  • tragic circumstanses for sure. I am certain that nothing I say will really easy the pain and sense of loss that comes from this tragedy. These firefighters are heroes and having given the ultimate sacrifice they are now with God in heaven.

  • God bless our fallen brothers!

    Fallen, but NEVER forgotten.

  • I hate death. RIP

  • god keep the fallen at his side and watch over thoes that still serve.rip heros rip. god be with you all.

  • I have been a firefighter for 30 years. In a very busy UK station ( fire house to my American friends) I'm blessed, to be here today. My heart goes out to all the families that lost loved ones that day. The true hero is here is the family left behind. Firefighters where ever they are from see their job as a duty and don't question it. We are not supermen or superwomen, You can call anyone in your hour of need . After firefighters there is nothing. In God we trust.

  • when is the opening day of your academy man

  • Does anyone know the story behind this? I was wondering if somebody can call by phone and speak to our academy on opening day to pay respect to these men, and to teach new cadets about the lessons that could be learned from this. Please contact me. We start next week. If you cannot comment, I understand and appreciate your response. With much respect, F. Munden Firefighter/Paramedic

  • Thank you guys..May you RIP......

    "A hero is not one whom acts without fear, but one who acts despite his fears".

    Bless all Fire Fighters around the world.......
