Three fallen Missouri firefighters are among those being honored Sunday in Maryland as part of the 44th Annual National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend.
This year, the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation is honoring 140 firefighters. Of those, 70 died in the line of duty in 2024 and 70 from previous year.
The weekend began with a candlelight service.
St. Louis Fire Captain Garon Mosby hosted that event on Saturday night. Sunday, the tribute continues with a national memorial service, hosted by actor Jeremy Holm.
The memorial service runs from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and is being live streamed on the foundation’s website and social media platforms.
