The second Sunday in June is a day set aside in the United States to remember deceased firefighters. This is Quincy's Firefighter Memorial located in Quincy Cemetery, across from the Police Station. Firefighters are public servants in every sense of the word. The men and women who pursue this calling are compassionate and giving and put their lives on the line for us without notice. Thank you!
