It all still seems so unreal… I can’t believe you’re gone.  I will always remember our trips to Fayetteville, and just hanging out having couple of beers… I will cherish every laugh we shared.  Thank you for being more than just a friend.  You will never be forgotten, brother…

The fire service has suffered a great loss, you were not only a great instructor who taught me alot but you were a great friend. R.I.P.

We are going to miss you Connie. We truly enjoyed our times together. Thanks for everything you ever taught Brunswick VFD (Columbus County) Jerry & Rose Gore

Thanks “BIG C” for everything you tought me. I will miss you brother!

Great that everyone made it out safe this time but what about next time.  There were lessons learned here.  We as firefighters think that won’t happen to our department.  Fire doesn’t segregate if you are volunteer or career.  Dave Dodson’s “Art of Reading Smoke” and Frank Branningan’s “Building Construction”.  There is a lot of information out there so that we can stop the since-less near misses or DEATHS.  Once again very happy to not be going to another FIREFIGHTER’S FUNERAL......
