Funeral of a Firefighter, Maplewood, Missouri.
Friday capped off a rather violent week in St. Louis when a firefighter was shot to death while responding to a call of a vehicle fire in the quiet suburb of Maplewood early Monday morning. Here’s the story if wish to read more. My duty was to provide pool still photo coverage in the church and transmit a photograph back with our new wireless transmitter and wifi-hotspot generator. Now that’s an incredible piece of technology even if the latch on the battery door of the transmitter fell apart just three days out of the box sigh.
The simple act of the gentleman placing a cross on the casket with family and friends surrounding him is such a beautiful and respectful gesture. The silence is almost deafening in this photograph, and it’s why I chose it to be my lead transfer to anchor our coverage online.
