May he Rest in Peace.

My condolences to the friends and family members of this firefighter, and to the members of the Hartford Fire Department.

I've been told he was a firefighter with Hartfords Engine 16. The firefighter with burns transported to the Burn Unit in Bridgeport Hospital jumped out of a window and is assigned to Tac 1, Hartfords Rescue Co.
 
RIP Brother.  Prayers going up now for you, your family, brother firefighters and friends.  Praying for a speedy and complete recovery for the injured.
 
REST IN PEACE BROTHER......PRAYERS FOR THE COMFORT OF THE FAMILIES & A FULL RECOVERY FOR THE INJURED.
 
Prayers for the fallen Firefighter may he rest in eternal peace. Condolences to the fallen member's family and members of the H.F.D.. Prayers for the member from TAC-1 for a speedy recovery.
 
The last sentence of the Firemen's Prayer:And if according to Your will I have to lose my life, God bless with Your protecting hand my children and my wife.
 
Rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers for him, his family, the others who were injured, and the entire department.

During the services for Hartford Firefighter Kevin Bell, ALL Hartford Fire Department members will be able to attend these services. The City of Hartford will be bringing in many other departments to cover the entire city.

  I believe members from Bridgeport, Meriden, Middletown, East Hartford, Manchester, Norwich, and West Hartford will be covering the city. I know Norwich is sending their Reserve Ladder with a captain and three firefighters. I believe they are scheduled to be there at 0600 hours to receive their assignments.

  Site member "Patrickfd" might be able to add or correct me on any of this information. Pat D., a retired East Hartford firefighter, has close ties to the Hartford Fire Department. Also, any updates on the condition of the member being treated in the Bridgeport Hospital Burn Unit ?
