I believe that it is our on
selfishness that want us to keep our love one here on earth with us,
but as we all know they are in a better place than we are. But I felt
the need to honor the members of our fire department who have gone
home. When thinking of memorials for the firefighters who could
one pass up the 9-11 WTC attacks? This is the day in history where the
most
firefighters lost their lives in the line-of-duty. At this site there
is a list of all the
names of all the firefighters that we lost on that day.
