Thank you "Johnny " for being an advocate and outspoken supporter to the fire service all your life. You will be deeply missed.

R.I.P., and know....you made a difference and a huge impact on so many of us.

Here at The Hall of Flame Museum of Firefighting, we send our deepest condolences to the Mantooth family, his friends and to the Los Angeles County Fire Department.

We are very saddened to hear of the passing of 38-year-old Emily Barker, of Clinton Township, who died bravely fighting a wildfire in Colorado this past weekend.

Barker was with a squad of four other firefighters sent into the Knowles Wildfire (which later became the Snyder Wildfire) in Colorado to battle the blaze on the ground when the fire overtook them in what’s called a “burnover.”

The crew was forced to deploy their emergency shelters, but tragically the fire claimed the lives of Ms. Barker and two others, and left two hospitalized.

Emily was studying at college in northern Michigan when she became more into firefighting, leading her to becoming a volunteer firefighter, and ultimately to her being assigned to the U.S. Forest Service R***e Helitack crew based out of R***e, Colorado.

We thank Emily for her dedication and bravery throughout such a difficult job. We send our most sincere condolences to her friends, family, and coworkers! Rest in peace, Emily.
