In Memory of a Fallen Firefighter

 

A memorial wreath was placed on Highway 115 at the final resting place of Air Tanker CO-1, in memory of a fellow firefighter and pilot who gave his life on April 15, 2008, in the line of duty.  We would like to honor the memory of this firefighting hero for his actions to protect Fort Carson and El Paso County from wildfire. Please take a moment of silence to view this hallowed place and to say thank-you for his ultimate sacrifice.

 

With Respect & Honor,

 

EMS 1 & EMS 3

El Paso County

Note: The wreath was purchased and placed by Bill Mayfield, RN, FI1, HMS of Memorial Health System and his partner, Bob Ferris, EMT-P. Bill and Bob were part of the El Paso County SO HazMat crew that responded to the crash.
