He leaves behind for children under 6 years old. Putting a face and story on a tragedy makes it so much harder to hear about it. The hotshots took cover and still died together. So tragic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-898601 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 12:36:18 +0000 deactivated_account 898601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This was such awful news to wake up to this morning.

When you live outside of the big cities, you count on the Hot Shots to keep your home and family safe. Growing up the smell of smoke in the summer terrified me.</p> <p>I have several cousins and old classmates in this line of work (thankfully on different teams than Granite Mountain) every summer makes me nervous. Thinking of their family and friends today. @JennyLayneAZ: thinking of your family too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897977 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:47:10 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 897977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is absolutely devastating. I woke up to this news this morning (I hadn't been watching tv really this weekend, so I didn't know about the fire). I have family that live in Yarnell and in Peeples Valley. As far as I know, they're ok, but I'm unsure if their homes are still standing. </p> <p>Any prayers are appreciated that they made it out safely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897959 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:42:15 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 897959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is so sad - so many of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897893 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:25:01 +0000 swurlygurl 897893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is so sad :(</p> <p>It breaks my heart to hear about stories like this </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897882 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:20:59 +0000 googly-eyes 897882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897804 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:04:53 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 897804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we lived in Northern Arizona my husband went out on wildfires all season - it was his whole job. This is every wildfire fighter's family's worst nightmare. I'm heartbroken for those men and their friends, family, &amp; community. </p> <p>My husband always assures me that he has a fire shelter and knows protocols and is safe when he goes out. I bet those brave men had said those same words. I'm dreading July now, it's my husbands turn to go out on wildfires :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897693 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 08:25:08 +0000 MrsKoala 897693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So unbelievably sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/19-firefighters#post-897691 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 08:24:21 +0000 Meltini 897691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is a firefighter/paramedic and this is my biggest fear.
