TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) Families of men and women who lost their lives in the line of duty smiled and cried as they help to remember first responders at Terre Haute’s Fallen Hero’s Memorial.
Members of Terre Haute Fire Department, Terre Haute Police Department, Vigo County Sheriff’s office and others gathered to lay wreaths and explained the work they put in to make sure their former colleagues are never forgotten.
Terre Haute Fire Chief Bill Berry says it’s an unpredictable profession.
“The reality of being a police officer, the reality of being a firefighter, life can be snatched away from you in a second so I don’t want to see that again,” said Chief Berry. “I mean I hope none of us have to deal with that again in our community or our nation.”

HAWTHORNE, NJ - On Saturday, the Rea Avenue ramp to Route 208 from Lincoln Avenue was temporarily closed off as the borough dedicated the street corner to the memory of Richard J. Roughgarden, right across from the home he once lived in.
Roughgarden was honored with a sign declaring the area First Lt. Richard J. Roughgarden, USA Way in commemoration of his service to his country in the Vietnam War.
The ceremony was led by Council President Frank Matthews, standing in for Mayor Goldberg who had suffered a fractured leg Wednesday and could not attend. The Marine Corps League, Lakeland Detachment #744, began by posting the colors, followed by the pledge of allegiance as said by a gathering of family members, friends, and local officials. Pastor Howie Van Dyk of the Hawthorne Gospel Church delivered the invocation. Lord, we thank you for the fact we can gather on this busy street corner that we can have a moment of silent to remember our fallen hero.�
