SHOW LOW — The bells rang one final time as three Timber Mesa Firefighters were honored at the Arizona Fallen Firefighter Memorial, where their names were formally etched into stone, marking a moment of profound remembrance for lives lost in the line of duty.

Glenn Collins, Brenna Kulikowski, and Damon Thompson are now forever remembered, their names etched in stone for all time and memorial. They were added to the memorial wall alongside firefighters from across Arizona who made the ultimate sacrifice. Small Arizona flags placed beside each name stood as quiet symbols of gratitude, love, and respect—reminders that their service will never be forgotten.
