A sad reminder

Mr. Nag has been away this week attending the funeral of a brother who died in the line of duty. It's a sad reminder to me of the risk encountered by firefighters every day on the job. This is what he had to say:
Toronto Fire Capt. Charles Bellamy and another Toronto firefighter drove 10 hours, after working a 24-hour shift, to be there. “It’s all about respect,” he said as he stood in the frigid cold waiting for Kelley’s funeral procession. “It’s all about backing your brother up."

  1. Wow. I didn't know that you're old man was a firefighter.

    A stand up guy, to boot.
