Remembering September 11, 2001

unnamed

 

Today September 11, 2015 the members of Star City Fire and EMS pause, reflect, remember and honor those individuals from Police, EMS and Fire that made the ultimate sacrifice on September 11, 2001. Daily these and countless other bold and fearless public servants suit up, head out and face the challenges of the day knowing full well that when they leave their friends and loved ones at home that they may never come home again. Today we do not mourn the deaths of those who have gone on before us, but rather choose to celebrate their lives and honor the selfless sacrifices made on that fateful day. Rest well our brothers and sisters. Listed below are all the confirmed line of duty deaths on September 11, 2001:
