The documentary explores the lives of the six firefighters — Lieutenant Thomas Spencer, Firefighter Paul Brotherton, Firefighter Timothy Jackson, Firefighter Jeremiah Lucey II, Lieutenant James Lyons and Firefighter Joseph McGuirk — through interviews with relatives and other firefighters that were on the job 20 years ago.
The Leary Firefighters Foundation was established by actor and Worcester native Denis Leary following the tragic events of Dec. 3, 1999.
The next four parts will be aired at LearyFirefighters.org and on Leary Firefighters Foundation social media accounts.
