From the NFFF ... "Families of fallen firefighters face a long and difficult journey. While the rest of the world moves on, family members must figure out how to live without their loved one. The Foundation offers a variety of programs and materials to help during this most difficult time. Most importantly, we want you to know that you are not alone. There are others who understand your loss and honor your loved one’s memory"

The statement that stood out most to me was when O'Donnell said "We weren't in a bad spot. I did not feel heat at all,” . From WSBT "With 18 years of firefighting experience, O’Donnell said he did not feel unsafe inside the building".
