Not forgotten

Section of Grand Avenue dedicated to fallen firefighter Michael Esposito

Posted
Tragedy struck Baldwin one year ago, on May 18, 2011, when 43-year-old Michael Esposito, a three-time Baldwin Fire Department captain, suffered a fatal heart attack on the way to battle a blaze on Grand Avenue. Esposito, the brother of another Baldwin firefighter, Todd, was remembered over the weekend, when a section of street bordering the firehouse was renamed Ex-Captain Michael Esposito Way in his honor. Speakers gave praise to Esposito's dedication and sacrifice.
