I was so sorry to hear of the loss of firefighter Whitacre. Even in the aftermath of this tragedy, someone, most likely another responder, thought to put a flare warning of the ice around the curve in the road. Because of that I slowed down and was saved from hitting that ice. God be with the family and friends of this young man.
Condolences to the Gore VFD, Frederick County Fire/Rescue, and the friends and family of FF Whitacre. God Bless you and be with you in your time of loss.
God Bless our Fire and Rescue people. They take on a very dangerous job. May his/her family find comfort in knowing they where doing a life's calling.They will be deeply missed by everyone. We have lost a brave soul.Our thoughts and prayers are with the family as they have to go thru this..
