WATERTOWN, N.Y. (WWNY) - Peyton Morse, the fallen Watertown firefighter, will be given his Siena College degree posthumously this Saturday.
Watertown fire chief Matt Timerman and three other Watertown city firefighters will make the trip to Siena College Saturday, where they will be with Morse’s parents and family and firefighters from the Shaker Road-Loudonville department, the department Morse volunteered with while in college.
Chief Timerman recalled Thursday the time he encouraged Morse to not leave school early for a job with the Watertown fire department.
