On the 100th Anniversary of the Chicago Stockyard fire in which 21 firefighters died, two died in a collapsed burning commercial building.

Fire fighting is tough enough business, but winter makes it hell on ice.

May their families find peace in their honor to duty.

Definitely a shame. These things happen from time to time regardless of the training and skill of the firemen. They have my respect.

I have both Chicago Fireman and Police in my family. News like this makes you realize how tough they really are.

Firefighting is one of those professions where you can be doing everything right and still die.

May they rest in peace.
