December 3, 1999 - 2009
Ten years ago today, tragedy struck the City of Worcester, specifically the Worcester Fire Department. Six Worcester firefighters,
Paul Brotherton,
Lt. Timothy Jackson,
James Lyons,
Jeremiah Lucey,
Joseph McGuirk,
Lt. Thomas Spencer
paid the ultimate sacrifice in the infamous Worcester Cold Storage inferno. It was an catastrophe that brought the City, the region, the State and even the Nation together to remember and honor six brave men who gave their lives trying to save others. Please take a moment today to say a prayer for these men, for their families and for their brother firefighters & friends, and for all firefighters & public safety personnel who have given their lives in the line of duty. They all truly deserve those prayers and the understanding that their sacrifices will never be forgotten.
