It is with the deepest sympathy that, once again, we are posting to the fellow Firefighters who have lost the good fight. Let them not go in vain and may God bless their families, both immediate and the very large extended family we refer to as "The Bravest Heros in the World". God Be with them and their families.

A Fireman's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God
Wherever Flames may rage
Give me the strength to save some life
Whatever Be its age
Help me embrace a little child
Before it is too late
Or save an older person from
The horror of that fate
Enable me to be alert and
Hear the weakest shout
And quickly and efficiently
To put the fire out
I want to fill my calling and
To give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor
And protect their property
And if according to your will
I have to lose my life
Please bless with your protecting hand
My children and my wife.

GOD BLESS ALL FIREFIGHTERS!
WE FEEL YOUR LOSS

It is with great sorrow that I am sending this post. I laid in bed listening to the 3-alarm fire on my scanner this morning and when I heard there were firefighters trapped I felt heart broke. I know so many career and volunteer firefighters I felt that I knew the firefighters that were lost. I pray that God will take care of them and their families in this time of grief. My prayers and the prayers of many others are with these families.
Sincerly,
Tim Highley
Deputy Chief
Spring Fire Department
