Auburn firefighters honor their fallen at annual memorial service
The bell's five rings echoed eerily through banisters of Willard Chapel as the names of nine Auburn firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice were read at Monday night's annual firefighter memorial service.
Each name added its own story to the fire department and the city's rich history.
Frank Murphy suffered an aneurysm while fighting a fire on Wall Street in 1927, Joseph Anton suffered a heart attack while fighting a fire in 1932, James McGee died fighting a fire in 1939 and John Gill died fighting a fire in 1942.
