John,
Very nicely put together video and heartfelt song tribute to the fallen heroes from your town.
Nice mix and vocal too. You didn't mention what tracks you used but they sound good.

John,
This was/is a terrible tragedy for very brave firefighters.
Your music would be loved by them all.
We live in in Northern Calif. back in the sticks. Just a matter
of time before we are hit. Live and Dread every summer for about 6 months.
This is a great honor you have bestowed upon these folks and their families.
Thanks for your efforts and hard work, sharing with us all.

John,
A wonderful tribute for those 19 heroes. I hope each one of their family members hears your beautiful song and treasures it forever.
This is why we write, sing, record, and publish our music. To be able to do something special for people. To maybe make things a little bit better somehow. We should all take inspiration from your work.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Mike

Floyd Jane: Thanks for your comments. I sure appreciate it.
seeker: Thanks for listening. Yes, it makes you nervous to live in the dry west. We had two fires this year: one about 6 miles from our house and the Yarnell Hill fire about 35 miles away where the Granite Mountain Hotshots died.
Noel: I appreciate you listening. I always enjoy your songs.
boehm: Thanks. Some day I hope to be as inventive as you.
SpaceDog. Yes, I hope the families and other firefighters find something for them in the song.
John

Excellent tribute and song. Fire fighters and police are the 2 most under recognized jobs, but without both the world would be chaos. Thanks for sharing!

Later, Danny beat me to it but this is exactly what I would have said if I heard this first. All I can add is a big WOW this is just fantastic
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!
