Truly an American hero.
May God hold hi in the palm of his hand
I pray for the repose of his soul and that he will come to dwell in the presence of God. I truly hope he did not suffer as many burn victims do. May those responsible for this fire come to know the white heat of justice for their actions.
How sad, Pablo a true hero for all of us. My thoughts and prayers are with him, I know God is welcoming him home.
Pablo’s family should be proud of thier son, a true hero.
Another true hero ,lost because of someone stupidity.I will pray for him.Joe
So Sad. God speed Pablo. My prayers are with his family and friends. I hope those responsible are found.
[...] Person of interest, Raymond Lee Oyler, will be charged with five counts of first-degree murder, 11 counts of arson and 10 counts of use of an incendiary device for his involvement in the Esperanza wildfire that killed initially four firefighters and then a fifth one who suffered from burns over 95% of his body. Investigators interviewed Raymond Lee Oyler on October 27, 2006 and served a search warrant on his Beaumont residence Monday. There is no reason why prosecutors should not seek the death penalty for the deaths of five heroic firefights. This was a deliberate act of arson, life in prison is too good for someone who would knowingly and willfully set fires that would affect so many people’s lives and cause death. [...]
It’s a sad thing when a true hero dies because of someone else’s error. My thoughts and prayers are with the families.
