As a firefighter, I would likely never be called to action as you were, but I can appreciate the devotion to the job. Our paths may never have crossed, but the memory of your service and the impact of your loss will remain forever with me.

We shall honor you in death by honoring your life. You served your country and community proud. Thank you Officer Birkholz, and may you rest in peace.
