May they never be forgotten
"Your family becomes ours: and ours becomes yours. In our breed, you will experience
our, often strange sense of humor, and you'll develop pride. Not boastful, bragging,
cocky pride: rather an inner pride known only by those who have worn the gear. You
will develop a respect for your coworkers across the nation, and their job that exists in
no other profession. It is often said that firefighting gets in your blood. That,s not
true. It gets in your heart."

Firefighters's Prayer

When I'm called to duty God
wherever flames may rage
Give me the strength to save
some life Whatever be it's age


Help me embrace a little child
Before its too late
Or save an older person from
The horror of that fate


Enable me to be alert and Hear
the weakest shout
And quickly and efficiently To
put the fire out


I want to fill my calling and To
give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor
And protect their property


And if according to your will I
have to lose my life
Bless with your Protecting
hand
My children and my wife

On January 9th, 2001 the Buongiorne family and the Kendall
Fire Department lost Rick Buongiorne in the line of duty. The
scar of his supreme sacrifice left upon each and every
members heart shall never be forgotten. Our prayers continue
to go out to his family along with our thanks for his service to
our community.
