Sculpture by Timothy P Schmalz "Fire Fighters Monument" ABOUT THE SCULPTURE Fire Fighters rush to the scene under the cover of angels’ wings while the angels kneel in sorrow for the Fire Fighters’ fallen brothers.The reverse side of the monument shows an angel praying for the fallen fire fighters with a city scape safely sheltered in its wings. The perspective of the city is from high above as if the fallen fire fighters are looking down from heaven on the city they sacrificed their lives to protect.
A note from KY Fire Chiefs Association: The Kentucky Fallen Firefighter Memorial is a tangible tribute to those individuals who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
Raising over 19 feet in the air, is one of the memorials focal points, a stainless steel multifaceted Maltese cross, the national symbol of firefighters. Supporting this cross is the massive polished black granite obelisk. The obelisk's pedestal is hand etched with a collage of firefighters in action, using many different types of equipment and in different firefighting situations. The two polished black granite wings, both left and right of the pedestal have been designated for the names of all our fallen firefighters to be permanently engraved. At the present time there are more than 255 names on the wall.
