Cedar Grove Firefighters along with hundreds of people turned out for the funerals of Newark Firefighters Wayne “Bear” Brooks Jr. and Augusto “Augie” Acabou. The two firefighters were killed after they were trapped in a July 5th fire aboard the Grand Costa D’Avorio, a cargo ship carrying vehicles that was docked in Port Newark. Our hope and prayers are with the families of the firefighters and the members of the Newark Fire Dept.
