Death of FDNY Firefighter Timothy Klein: Firehouse Bunting Ceremony

In a somber ceremony on Monday, the FDNY honored Firefighter Timothy Klein by draping the facade of the Brooklyn firehouse where he worked with bunting. Dozens of firefighters, fire officers, department and city leaders, and members of Klein's family gathered outside for the tribute. Working from inside a raised bucket on a fire truck, two firefighters draped six half-circles of purple-and-black bunting in pairs over the vehicle doors of Engine 257 and Ladder 170 in Canarsie. Two chaplains then each recited a prayer. After they finished, the attendees saluted while the pipes and drums band played Amazing Grace.

He's one of the reasons why I'm becoming a firefighter. May this hero rest in peace

[@williampatterson5125]

Thank you for taking the steps to becoming a firefighter. I did in 97 to 2014 a vol. Firefighter though. I did it because someone volunteer firefighter lost his life to save a person in a car that was in a flooded creek with other volunteers who were helping to rescue the person.

[@professorminstrels6460]

I am in a UK fire dept since Oct 2017

[@brendaurch6270]

Take great pride in what you want to become.just like our military men and women chose to serve God and country. My 🙏for protection for you and all who serve with pride.🇺🇸✝️🙏🇺🇸✝️🙏🇺🇸✝️

[@brendaurch6270]

Just like our military ,firefighters and police need to be honored.they put their lives on the line to help keep us safe and alive. God bless them.my 🙏for the family and all firefighters and police.🙏🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸

[@joelcurty5618]

As a family member that has lost an uncle to cancer that was a fireman for over 24 years that we as citizens see the many things that firemen go through each and every day they go out to protect our city and our homes. And there are many that may say that firemen just stay at the station at anytime or any given hour they are called upon to put them selves in harm's way to put out fires and save people. As a reviewer that I give my respect and courtesy to those brave men and women that go above and beyond and to the family may the Lord watch over you and guide you . That you have so many brothers and sisters that wear the boots and the jacket that there to back you up

[@mgallager1449]

I send prayers to the family for there lost and also for the other firer fighters as they continue to serve the public. God bless u all.

[@scottcampbell4678]

As a former volunteer firefighter, I feel like this affects all of us, career and volunteer, present and former. While I was in the department, two members died. They were not department related, but that did not matter to us. They were members of our department family. And we responded that way. It was hard, but we had our department family to help us. This is not just connected to FDNY. We are all members of a huge family. Members of any department are part of our extended family. I am sure most firefighters feel the loss. I certainly do.

[@richardratcliff5521]

Rest in peace brother. 🙏
