ON June 28th, 2013, a firestorm took the lives of 19 firefighters in Yarnell Hill Arizona. While writing a song to express my sadness and site the enormous courage of those who died, the tragic events at Lac Megantic took place. I chose to put these two events together and dedicate the song to first responders, firefighters and EMT's who put their lives on the line every day.

An Ember of Hope

Two years ago this week, two terrible tragidies took place. One in Arizona and one in Lac Megantic.   This song is a tribute to the men and woman who put their lives on the line to save others every day.
