  • Common Voices Advocate Vina Drennan shares candid insight into her husband, Captain John Drennan, and his death and how she became a lifelong advocate as a result, sharing her story so that others can understand how she turned tragedy into advocacy. Her work with Common Voices, the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, and many other national groups underscores the impact of the Watts Street Fire on New York City and beyond. Vina tells it like it is, and her passion shines through for the cause of fire sprinklers. Exploring the impact that Line of Duty Deaths (LODDs) have on the fire service, the impact that a LODD has on the family and the impact on all involved is a central theme. #fastestwater #Advocacy #AlwaysRemember

    I was there that night as a Detective assigned to the NYPD Arson and Explosion Squad. This was one of my first investigations involving the death of a Fure Fighter. I am still haunted by the memory of that night.

    Yes all buildings should have fire sprinklers including houses. How wonderful that you are actively getting the info out about sprinklers and fire prevention!!
