Excerpts from the ChicagoSunTimes.com:
Family and colleagues gathered in The Robert J. Quinn Fire Academy on Tuesday to honor the life of Juan Bucio, the Chicago Fire Department diver who died May 28 searching for a missing man who had fallen off a boat in the Chicago River.
The building where firefighters and paramedics sharpen their skills also serves as a solemn place of reflection for firefighters and family. Along a wall in the academy is a case that memorializes the fallen firefighters and paramedics with their badges and nameplates.
The mayor joined Chicago Fire Commissioner José A. Santiago, Bucio’s two sons and the diver’s brother in unveiling badge number 5115 in the wall of honor display case as Amazing Grace echoed through the building.
