Two New England public safety servants recently died in the line of duty, again a reminder of the hazards and stresses faced by the members of the region’s emergency services.
Lieutenant Edward J. Walsh, Jr., and Firefighter Michael R. Kennedy, of the Boston, MA, Fire Department died as a result of operations during a nine-alarm fire at 298 Beacon Street in Boston’s Back Bay on Wednesday, 26 March. May they rest in peace.
