Let's keep everything in perspective, folks. Two of Gecko's brother firemen on the South Side were just killed by a collapsing building. 14 injured, some severely.
Say a little prayer for them.

    A hard time of the year to lose a close friend/co-worker or brother as you say. My thoughts & prayers will be with Phil and those around him in this Season. I would presume those that passed did so doing what they loved...we should all be so fortunate in that sense.

    Thought this was kind of appropriate. If you dont think so, my apologies.

    image It is important to remember every day is a gift and should be cherished. My heart goes out to all police, fireman and soldiers who put their lives in danger for the rest of us. Hug your families this Holiday Season and let them know you love them.
    PEACE! This is the first day of the rest of your life.

    You know it's a big deal when it's the lead story on the local tv news. So sorry to hear this.

    Big props for all of the public safety and first responders in our nation.
