This memorial is dedicated for fallen firefighters from Daviess County, with Mark Kelsey being the first to be memorialized.   We dedicated it on 9-11-07 and asked Mark Kelsey's mom, Paula to unveil it.  Also given to Paula Kelsey were nearly 100 Fire Department T-shirts that were donated to her from from brothers and sisters across Indiana, Kentucky and even Iraq.  Let us not forget our fallen brother and sister firefighters.
