LAST CALL 1/26/07 (Dedicated to 16552 Shane Daughetee who gave his life in the line of duty January 26, 2007 ) I remember the alarm on that fateful day, as we responded in haste, to be carried away. With sirens screaming our advancing pace, we answered the call by taking our place. He has answered this call many times before, you see it's his job, he expects no less, no more. He knows the danger that comes with the quest, but he answered that call, by doing his best. He is armed with the weapons of life saving gear, the sight of the fire drawing him near. Then we arrive at this god-awful sight, the house ablaze, no time for fear, just fight. This is what he loved he knew his life could be lost, but he'd do what he could no matter the cost His heart is now pounding, as the sweat pours down his face, but he keeps moving at a life saving pace. Shouting out orders as he continues his quest, "GET DOWN, KEEP MOVING!" he shouts, "PLEASE GOD! HELP ME!". I'm doing my best. Then all at once theres a thunderous roar from above, his life flashes before him images of those whom he loves. Then out of nowhere he is led by the hand, by this unknown person, who is this man? He carries him out of this inferno from hell, as he lifted his soul, just when everything fell. Now he is at peace, just comfort - no pain, who is this man who offered his hand when his tears fell like rain? He now stands before this bright heavenly light, he raises head and asks.. who is this man who came to my plight? Then, he hears a voice from above as his eyes roam, "My son, do not fear for he has taken you home." "He is just like you, you see he answered your call. He was just doing his job, giving his all." "His boots and his helmet were supplied from above, and his power and strength came from those that you love." "You see, even up here when the alarm bell rings, they answer your call these firefighters with wings." "He carried you away from that horrible place, when you cried out to Me, for my love and my grace." "Your mission is over my son, you answered your last call, you saved so many lives, be proud and walk tall." "My son, take my hand and walk into the light, and dwell with Me forever in God's heavenly might." Go home Shane we got it.
