Arrangements for Worcester Firefighter Jon Davies, Rescue Co. 1, who heroically made the supreme sacrifice when trapped in a structural collapse while searching for a reportedly trapped occupant during a third alarm fire the morning of December 8th are as follows:
The viewing will be held on Wednesday, December 14, 2011 from 3:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Mercadante Funeral Home, 370 Plantation Street, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, (508) 754-0486.
The funeral will be held on Thursday, December 15, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, 24 Mulberry Street, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, (508) 752-2964.
A fund has been established at the Worcester Fire Department Credit Union to benefit the Davies children. Donations may be forwarded to: The Jon Davies Children’s Fund, 34 Glennie Street, Worcester, MA 01605. http://www.wfdcu.org/
Our thoughts are with the Davies family and the members of the Worcester Fire Department, especially Firefighter Brian Carroll, who remains hospitalized recovering from injuries sustained in the collapse.
Respectfully,
