The service will feature musical selections by members of the fire service and survivors of fallen firefighters and a video tribute to the 2007 fallen heroes. Fire service Honor Guard will help families light commemorative votive candles for their fallen firefighters. Children attending Family Day will create special luminaria used in this service.
As the ceremony closes, returning survivors will share the light from the Remembrance Candle, a symbol of the hope and enduring friendship shared by all who have lost a firefighter.
There will be reserved seating for the families of the firefighters being honored at the 2008 Memorial Weekend and for returning survivors of firefighters honored in previous years. Friends and members of the departments of the fallen firefighters will be able to watch the service over a closed circuit broadcast on the NFA campus.
