Please take a minute to read Chief Goldfeder's article on the home page.
As Christmas approaches, it's hard for any firefighter to celebrate the season without also remembering the Worcester Six, the Keokuk Three and now, most recently Baytown, Texas Firefighter Nito Guajardo. He was killed in a single family dwelling fire last Monday, December 20. He will be buried Christmas Eve.
Paul A. Brotherton, Jeremiah M. Lucey, Timothy P. Jackson, Joseph T. McGuirk and fire lieutenants Thomas E. Spencer and James F. Lyons III were killed on December 3, 1999.
In Keokuk, Assistant Fire Chief Dave McNally, 48, Firefighter Jason Bitting, 29, and Firefighter Nate Tuck, 39 were killed while attempting the rescue of three trapped kids-who also perished
In 1998, on December 18, 3 FDNY firefighters from Ladder 170 in Canarsie, Brooklyn, Lt. Joseph Cavalieri, FF Chris Bopp and FF Jimmy Bohan died on the 10th floor of a "fireproof" multiple dwelling on Vandalia Ave
On September 11, 2001, 343 of the FDNY's finest gave their lives so other's might live.
All gave some, some gave all. Remember them all this holiday season. May they all rest in eternal peace and the angels watch over their families and keep them safe.
Have safe Holiday Season everyone.
