We Served You Well …
When duty called with striking bell …
We did our best …
We served you well …
Through raging flame and pits of hell …
We were there …
And served you well …
As soldiers of smoke …
We fought …
We fell …
Know our love …
We served you well …
From the Vendome Memorial Program, June 17, 1997
Cornelius J. O’Brien Deputy Fire Chief, Retired, Cambridge Fire Department
Rest in peace and thank you for protecting our neighborhood.
Lieutenant Edward J. Walsh and Firefighter Michael R. Kennedy
For those who come upon this at a later date, here is the story of the fire that took their lives.
