The 2010 IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial Service will be held Saturday, September 11, 2010 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. 

The mission of the IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial, which is located in the shadow of Pike’s Peak, is to honor the sacrifice made by IAFF members who serve as professional fire fighters and emergency medical personnel who have given their lives in the line of duty. Since its creation in 1976 through June 2009, the names of 2,274 fallen IAFF members have been engraved into the wall of honor located behind the memorial. The IAFF ensures that the ceremony remains an uplifting one for the families, friends and loved ones, and that it celebrates the lives, heroism and accomplishments of our union’s bravest of the brave.

This year, two of our members will be honored at this ceremony, Frederick L. Perry who passed away on November 13, 2009 and Victor S. Rollins who passed away on February 26, 2009.
