On Monday, August 9th, **CFD FF/PM Chris Wheatley of Truck Company 2** passed away after sustaining injuries when he fell from a ladder near the roof while responding to a fire at 615 W. Randolph. His funeral took place on August 13, 2010, at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Alsip, following a Mass at St. John Fisher Church on South Washtawaw.
A series of commemorative plaques now mark Truck 2 in his honor. One such plaque is shown here, part of four that pay tribute to his service and sacrifice.
The casket was carried by Engine 5 during the journey to the church, with firefighters from across the region standing in solemn respect.
As the casket was brought out of the funeral home, Chicago Fire Department commissioners and chiefs offered a final salute. A large crowd gathered outside St. John Fisher Church, including members of the AFFI Honor Guard representing many suburban departments.
Firefighters lined the streets, showing their deep respect for a fellow brother who gave everything in the line of duty.
