Keeping a Dad Close to Heart

The loving family of LAFD Pilot Brian Lee (1967-2014) copes with the loss by continuing cherished traditions in his honor. Cheryl Smith shares her appreciation for the Widows, Orphans & Disabled Firemen’s Fund and the leaders of its parent organization, the Los Angeles Firemen’s Relief Association. She is grateful for the outpouring of emotional support and guidance she received, made possible by all of our kind supporters.
