Our condolences to the Middleton family and the Boston Fire
Department of Massachusetts. FireFighter David Middleton, 38, a
10 year veteran of the Boston Fire Department assigned to Engine

shift and had complained of not feeling well at the second fire.
Later that evening, while at home, he suffered a heart attack. His
brother firefighters from Ladder 23 and paramedics struggled to
