Historic 4-11 Alarm fire in Chicago, 2-14-62

This from Steve Redick:

I found my dad’s clippings of the 4-11 at 1365 E 70th St 2/14/62. As many of you may know this is the fire where Bob and Ray Hoff’s dad was killed. Since many were not old enough to recall this I am sending the clippings for your perusal. So many years later and the photos still bring tears to my eyes. Two wonderful families totally devastated.

4-11 Alarm fire in Chicago, 1978

This from Steve Redick:

So I have finally started cleaning up some of my accumulation of fire stuff, now that I am an old retired guy. I came across my old home made recording of the 4-11 alarm at Z Frank Chevy, Granville and Western in 1978. I remember I was on my way to college classes and “took this in”. It was snowing like crazy. I took a few images and then had to continue to school. The Main FAO radio voices were Dan Evans and George Brown. I’m not sure who the chief was in the 27th. Enjoy the history

Steve
