Timmy Young, a firefighter for 20 years, was responding to an EMS call on January 7th when he had a heart attack and collapsed.
Young passed away on Thursday. He was 41.
A visitation is scheduled for Wednesday from 6:00pm to 8:00pm at Dunbar Funeral Home on Devine Street.
Funeral services will take place the following day at 2:00pm at Shandon Baptist Church on Forest Drive.
Travis Young says his father Timmy died doing what he loved, "I could tell he loved his job. I once heard a story told about when he graduated from high school his plan in life was to go on to the Army for a couple of years and become a firefighter."
Travis says he plans to keep the spirit of his father alive by passing it on to his own son one day, "I'm gonna let him know about him having a goal in life and achieving it if nothing else."
