MTFD Memorial Page
Each year, many men and women join a local Fire Department.
Each one of those people has a thought, a certain thought of
bravery, of heroism. Each is ready to do battle with a force more
powerful then themselves, a force called Fire. Fire can be simple and
small or it could be complex and devastating. But none of those who
joined the Fire Department are afraid. They hold on to that one certain
thought of courage. They let nothing stand in their way of putting
a fire out.
When the alarm sounds, FireFighters quickly make their way
to their Fire Station. They hop on a fire truck and go off to do battle,
they go to fight the fire. But sometimes, a FireFighter may not
return from the fight. It's not because they went home or to get
something to eat, it's because the fire claimed their life. As sad
as it sounds, this is a tragic reality. Each year, both men and
women join a local Fire Department, each year both men and women
die trying to their duty for that Fire Department.
This page was created to pay tribute to those who have
lost their lives in the line of duty. They did battle because
of that one certain thought. They faced that force called Fire, and
they faced an even greater force - death. Let's keep their memory
alive within our hearts.
