The City of Charleston is in mourning this week having lost nine members of our cities finest firefighters in a tragic incident early this week. This is the largest loss of life in the fire fighting ranks of our nation since 9/11. To watch the news coverage and read the stories of these brave men's life's simply brings a tears to my eyes. They were fathers, brothers, uncles, friends and dedicated their lives to helping and saving other people. This Tragic incident really makes me reflect and be thankful for the many opportunities and blessings that I have in my life. So take stock today and be thankful for all you have in your life and join me and the thousands of others and say a prayer for the these brave heroes and for their family and friends.
