I am in Colorado Springs, CO this week at the Annual Fallen Firefighter Memorial which this year happens to also fall on September 11th. This memorial is to comfort the families and friends of firefighters who have died in the line of duty in the past year and pay their sacrifices tribute, but on this day it carries an even greater significance.
Rest in peace, my Brothers and Sisters. May we continue to learn from your sacrifices.
“I can think of no more stirring symbol of man’s humanity to man than a fire engine.”
–Kurt Vonnegut
