Can not imagine burning alive. God bless there souls. This will give people camping, drown your fires, stir your fires until out! Not all fires are started by camp fires, lighting is a big problem. Just a reminder to do our parts. Including me! How sad!

Hi David. We can’t agree with you more! So much happens behind the scenes. Thank you for watching and for commenting!

Had to watch thru tear filled eyes. Not exploiting.....just honoring. Hope folks think of these guys when they consider building campfires in drought conditions. When we get to AZ we will go to honor those lost and those who continue on to serve. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank YOU! I am so happy that you said that! ❤️ We were worried that it might be taken the wrong way. It really does make a person think about their actions. Very happy that you will be able to visit the site! 😃

Very touching video. Thanks for sharing. My son works for the Forest Service in Colorado and is responsible for designing, building and maintaining the communication systems used to communicate with firefighters. He shared with me not long ago that these 19 firefighters are what inspires him to maintain the best communication system he possibly can so a tragedy like this will hopefully never happen again. Those 19 firefighters are heroes and my son is my hero, too!

Thank you! You must be incredibly proud of your son. It was a tough video to shoot because we didn’t want to risk exploiting the misfortune of the firefighters. It was a very sobering experience. Thank you again for watching and commenting.

So sad, poor young men🥺 were they buried at this site? We have to thank God for all the firefighter, the nurses and doctors who are putting their life at peril for us. I thank you God for those men in Jesus Christus Name. Amen❤🕊❤ The life is so short guys. We must be thankful and praying for each other about everything.
