STORY: :: Firefighter killed in Trump assassination attempt remembered at candlelight vigil

:: July 17, 2024

:: Sarver, Pennsylvania

:: Heidi Powell, Real Estate Agent

:: “When we found out who it was, it touched the community deeply because he had such a big heart and was such a good Christian, a truly faithful gentleman who worked hard to care for others. And he did that in his final moments. It was very moving.”

:: Dan Ritter, friend of Corey Comperatore

:: “But if you scrolled back through his posts, you would see the three things Corey loved most. And I call them the three Fs. Because just like me, family comes first. Then there was his faith. And then there was his freedom with his country, which he loved.”

Residents gathered to remember the father of two and observed a moment of silence at the Lernerville Speedway, a few miles from Comperatore’s family home.

A memorial service and a fire brigade parade will take place on Friday (July 19).
