Previous Memorial Ceremonies

Each year since 2002, hundreds of uniformed firefighters from across the state have gathered at the State Capitol in Sacramento to pay tribute to California firefighters who paid the ultimate price to keep our state safe.

The annual Memorial Ceremony honors firefighters who died in the line of duty, either from traumatic injuries in the field or from job-related causes.
