In Memory Of Yonkers Firefighter Patrick Joyce (LODD) 1 Year

22 posts in this topic

We've dedicated this permanent section of the forum to Yonkers Firefighter Patrick Joyce.

In his honor, we are moving/conslidating all threads about FF Joyce to this forum. Not only will this contain the online condolence card, but all other topics that relate to FF Joyce. This will also be the place to remember FF Joyce on anniversarys and announce any benefits in his honr.

It will also remind our members that, you can be in one of the best fire departments in the nation, with the best equipment and plenty of manpower, and still be very vunerable to the evils of our job. FF Joyce was a man who loved firefighting, and loved his family. His death was during active duty firefighting, while trying to rescue others, and he sacrificed his life for those people that could and were believed to have been in there, but weren't. In the course of that, Yonkers lost a firefighter from the premier company in Yonkers, Rescue 1. YFD lost a brother. And most importantly, the Joyces lost a husband, father, brother, and son.

Much like the Jimmy Boy forum, I'm sure FF Joyce's death will leave a legacy, and won't be forgotten-this forum will serve in his honor to help, to remember.

(The staff will soon be listing criteria and more information on memorial forums-look soon in the "EMTBravo" section of these forums)

That memorial is beautiful. Thoughts and prayers are with the Joyce Family, YFD & Rescue Co. 1, and Yonkers FD. I'm glad his memory is being kept alive with the benefit next weekend...what a great cause.
