  • The Boston Gaelic Fire Brigade performs Amazing Grace on 1-7-08 at the funeral of our beloved member, Billy McCarthy (Boston Fire). Watch until the end of the video and you will see one of our pipers walking off in the distance at the cemetery playing the conclusion of Amazing Grace. Billy, we will miss you!

    WOW..that was truly powerful. I live just outside of Boston on the North Shore, and see almost everyday the Peabody FD Engine 4 screaming down my street. I always wish them well and pray for their safe return from every call. And for those that don't return, RIP.

    The sound of this bagpipe is really deep touching.
    RIP to the fireman.

    I'm also a Firefighter of 22.5 years and a former piper. I admire the dedication the eastern bands have over so many in the west. I also like how the lone piper played the final verse and walked away from the ceremony, very nice touch!
    My respects to the fallens family

    Please thank your Da for me, ForBoston523. Even though the band sounded challenged, the spirit was there, and in the end, that is what matters most. As long as the love warms through, even sour notes can be the most endearing.

    I like to think the lone piper represents the soul of the fallen, now free to depart the funeral and earth to its heavenly home.
