FIREFIGHTERS: Thanks for your support
I have been a firefighter for over 33 years. During my time in the fire service, I have attended countless funerals for our fallen firefighters. I know that presence is an important part of the culture within the fire service. Last week my brothers and sisters throughout the country didn’t let two of our bravest, Battalion Chief John Morrison Jr. of the CDAFD, as well as Battalion Chief Frank Harwood of KCFR, down.
Last Thursday evening my wife and I were dining at an outside table along Sherman Avenue and wearing our fire department T-shirts to represent and support our fire family. I found myself thanking the numerous firefighters from across the country that descended on the city and along Sherman Avenue. Numerous passersby also stopped these firefighters and thanked them. I could not have been prouder to be a local resident and member of our community. The outpouring of love, admiration, and respect shown to these firefighters, by our residents, was nothing short of amazing.
