For those of us, who were unable to attend....Thank you for the pictures.

Great Pictures as always Bill, Thanks

This fire took place during Kids Expo, I believe in the late '90's or early 00's. Ladder 2 was located on Main St., for the event and was blocked in due to the event, with a long delay in getting out. Ladder 1 was Out of Service with the Reserve Engine Running in its place. So obviously, by the time Ladder 2 was able to make it's way to the scene, there unfortuneatly wasn't much it could do. You are correct that Ladder 1 is located at Clover St., and Tower 2 is at Main St.

It is supposedly going where Denny's was near Marshalls on Rt. 9

PFD was able to keep all the exposures protected. Fire contained to the building of origin.

I used to work with Rich at the DCJ many years ago and as everyone else knows, he was a very dedicated man, who made you laugh. He made some of those long shifts bearable. I saw him not to long ago and almost didn't recognize him, but you could tell from the big grin and loud voice it was him. He will be missed.
