Dear IAFF Families,
Under normal circumstances, we would all be getting ready to travel to Colorado Springs for the Memorial Ceremony. Sadly, that is not happening this year, but we hope that you are able to make the trip next year for the in-person Ceremony.
The 2020 IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial Virtual Remembrance will be broadcast on September 19th at 11:00 am Mountain Time (1:00 pm Eastern; 12:00 pm Central and 10:00 am Pacific) on the following:
