Numerous messages to God since Wednesday...
Bless our brothers, the fallen Jakes
It seems there’s never rhyme nor reason
For whom He decides to take
Again we’re forced to struggle with the fact
That He’s taken two of our bravest
If we could, we brothers, march to heaven
From Him their souls we’d outwrest
But such is the fate of the dedicated Jake
Much, much too often
Though they died doing the job they loved
This blow cannot be softened
It crushes their families, kills their dreams
Of happy times together
They must go on, remembering their souls
Will live with them forever
We fellow firefighters in the “brotherhood”
Have lost two of our own
Like countless of our brothers before them
It still cuts to the bone
And lest we forget their brothers in arms
Who fought by their side
Some of whom still lay in hospital beds
Lucky to have not died
Our hearts may go out to all of the above
For they all suffer today
They’ll pick up the pieces the best they can
Each in their own way
But our prayers are for the eternal souls
Of two true Boston heroes
Who did their jobs until the very end
Earning them their haloes

We're currently working to make September 25th "National First Responder Appreciation Day" and I hope you will support this worthwhile cause.
Join the 6,000 other people who have signed our online petition at www.fixtheradios.org/campaign/nfrad_petition.
After you’ve signed the petition, send a letter to Congress urging them to give our first responders the national day of appreciation they deserve - http://www.fixtheradios.org/campaign/nfrad_petition3
Thanks!
