“WE SHALL NOT FORGET”
WEDNESDAY April 23rd, 2014, 1000 am
ANNUAL LA COUNTY FIREFIGHTERS MEMORIAL SERVICE
LAO HEADQUARTERS AT OUR MEMORIAL SITE
LOCAL 1014 BBQ TO FOLLOW
Sisters and Brothers,
This is a last reminder to take time this Wednesday and “Never Forget” our very own Los Angeles County Firefighter Brothers and Sisters who gave all and are forever remembered on our beautiful Granite Memorial Wall at LAO.
On this Wednesday break out your Class A or Department Long Sleeve Uniform and make time to get to LAO to create a sea of blue along with the LAO Uniformed and Non-Uniformed Staff to support the family members who will be in attendance to remember.
We have seen many tragedies and triumphs in our Department’s History and our Unions History, and we have traveled far and wide throughout the Country to Honor FDNY’s fallen, Boston, Chicago, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Canada, Kansas, Arizona and more. We have formed up and marched and paid our respects and with pride as if the fallen Brothers and Sisters were our very own.
Well, this Wednesday is our very own; our Brothers and Sisters from Engines and Trucks and Air Squads and PM Squads and Hospital Beds who have given. While all have given some, some have given all. Those are the folks on the Memorial Wall.
Please join Fire Chief Daryl Osby and Union President Dave Gillotte representing Management and Labor along with members of our great Department to shore up and let the families of our own fallen know that “We shall never forget”. Local 1014 will be hosting an after ceremony BBQ for camaraderie and fellowship and all are invited.
Thank you advance for your attendance and helping to do the right thing….take a day to remember,
Dave Gillotte and the Local 1014 Executive Board
