Just a clarification. This incident occured in Wallington, New Jersey (the fallen Brother is Past Chief of that department as a volunteer) He served as a Captain for Jersey City but I believe he retired from that job.

Absolutely unthinkable that his two sons were on the call with him... I can't even imagine. My thoughts and prayers go out to them, the rest of the family and both the Wallington and Jersey City Fire Departments.

Rest Easy, RFB.
