Caption: Two fire fighters look inside the Milford house in which three volunteers died during a training fire.The tragic deaths of three volunteer fire fighters touch each of us whose personal safety is dependent on the goodness, zeal and self-sacrifice of volunteers. We offer our thanks and sympathies to the families and communities that grieve their that the lives were not lost in vain.Every training fire, despite its dangers, teaches those involved, and who knows the effect in terms of lives saved and properties protected for the future by the same training fire that claimed three lives?We, in rural areas and townships throughout Michigan, rise to proudly salute the members of our community who live their lives - to protect ours.
