This is #Firefighter Warner.
He was one of the responders injured in the fire & bldg collapse last week that killed Capt. Ringering.
Despite 2 broken legs & a neck injury, he got in his dress blues for the funeral.
This will forever be more than “just a job”.

Another great example of why you should close before you doze.
In a post to Facebook, an officer from Cold Springs Harbor Fire Department in New York has urged parents to make sure their children's bedroom doors are shut at night.
The caption reads: "As a parent it's hard to convince little kids to sleep with the door closed, they always want it open just a little. I do a lot of fire prevention at schools, so one thing I try and stress to the kids is how important it is to sleep with the doors closed." The firefighter wanted to warn parents of the dangers of leaving their children's doors open at night. Credit: Facebook
The post continues: "This morning members of New Fairfield's Fire Departments along with mutual aid departments responded to a residential structure fire. The homeowners and family dog are all doing well. "The photos are a great example of the importance of keeping bedroom doors closed while sleeping. The door pictured in both photos is a hollow core door to a bedroom.
"While the front of the door is severely damaged the closed door protected the bedroom and its contents. If this were an occupied bedroom the closed door could have saved a life.
"The cause and origin of the fire are under investigation and believed to be accidental in nature. (Photos shared with homeowners' consent)."
They added: "The first picture is the hallway and the second is from inside the room!"

Thanks for bringing this story to our attention Ryan Ptakowski.
