A memorial service outside City Hall in Waterbury on Monday honored firefighters and police officers who died in the line of duty, including firefighters Heriberto ‘Eddie’ Rivera and Howard Hughes.

The names of members of the city’s police and fire departments who have died since then were read aloud.
