Rocky Mount Fire Department Firefighter William Daniel “Danny” Altice was laid to rest on Friday, July 30th. His funeral was attended by firefighters from all over Virginia and as far away as New Jersey and Charleston, South Carolina.

The mood was somber as Honor Guard units from departments across Virginia ensured our departed Brother was laid to rest respectfully.
