FOR HOOPS FANS, BY HOOPS FANS
A TRIBUTE TO FALLEN HEROES
"I have no ambition in this world but one
and that is to be a fireman.
The position may in the eyes of some appear to be a lowly one; But those who know the work which a fireman has to do
believe his is a noble calling.
Our proudest moment is to save...lives.
Under the impulse of such thoughts
the nobility of the occupation thrills us
and stimulates us to deeds of daring
even of supreme sacrifice."

Edward F. Croker Chief of Department FDNY 1899-1911
On Sunday, Sept 16th and Monday, Sept 17th, All Sacramento Area Fire Stations held a boot drive to raise money for the firefighter's families. Over $1.5 million dollars was raised.
