Arizona 19 - Memorial Service

Here is a link to the full video of today's memorial service.

Vice President Biden gave an eloquent eulogy to the fallen firefighters.

I was able to watch without tears until the bagpipes joined in with the hymn Amazing Grace. It was also comforting to see the lone survivor.

our entire state come together and show support both emotionally and financially for the families. The support from the fire fighters across the US was beautiful to see.

It was a terrible tragedy, beyond imagination and it will never be forgotten.

I am so glad that so many have shown their respect and love for them. They truly are the bravest of the brave.
