Honoring Firefighters
A heartfelt tribute to Ireland’s brave Firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

Rest now my fallen brother
Lay soft your suffering back
Rest well and forever
Your memory shall not lackRest your tired hands
Wipe clean your weary brow
Rest with St. Florian
Your spirit now endowedRest here your breaking heart
We know you gave your all
Rest easy, you’ve done your part
You’ve answered your last callRest knowing that in god we sought
Oh lord, watch over another who just fell
Rest assured your troubled thought
As we ring the final bell.
Roll of honour
Firefighters and fire service personnel who gave their lives in the line of duty in Ireland & Northern Ireland.
