The body of FAO Daryl Gordon is carried into St. Peter in Chains Cathedral.

Thousands of firefighters from across the region, and even Canada, lined Plum Street to honor one of their own... Firefighter Apparatus Operator Daryl Gordon. He died while fighting a fire in Madisonville. WVXU's Tana Weingartner produced this audio postcard from the funeral and graveside service.

"Job well done, Daryl. We'll take it from here."
