The body of NRFD FF Keith Morris was found this morning. May he rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers with him, his family and friends, and the members of the New Rochelle Fire Department.

RIP FF Morris.  A loss to family, friends and New Rochellle.


I just want to add that the asshole who wrote the attached story included a paragraph (an unproven court-sealed allegation w/o any charges filed) which was unnecessary, insensitive and inappropriate.  What a jerk.
