    Default 19 Firefighters Killed in Arizona

    Such a horrible, tragic event. Say a prayer for their families. I think this was the single largest firefighter loss since 9/11.

    The article in the link lists their names and ages. Most of them were in their early 20's. Such a shame. So sad.

    I just saw this on the news. What a terrible, terrible tragedy!!! My prayers go out to all who knew them. The report I saw said that almost everybody in their home town had some connection to at least one of the firefighters.

    What a terrible tragedy, and so close to your National holiday too. My sympathies, thoughts and prayers are with their families.

    Just so horrible and most of them were only in their mid 20s.
