PHILADELPHIA (MyFoxPhilly) - It was a bittersweet homecoming for the final firefighter hurt in that terrible Kensington factory fire last week.

Two of his Ladder 10 brothers were killed and another one hurt.

On Tuesday night, Pat Nally made it home.

Before doing so, he went by the memorial site outside Ladder 10 in honor of his two fallen comrades.

Nally's brother spoke with us after the hospital departure.

"The situation was a complete tragedy, and it could have turned out a lot worse for my family. But he was very fortunate, and somebody was definitely looking after him when everything went down," his brother said.

Nally suffered a back injury and has a broken pelvis. In addition to recovery, he's looking forward to marrying his fiancée, Kelly, in July.

FOX 29's Shawnette Wilson spoke with his family and filed this report.
