Over 50 uniformed firefighters from California lined up outside City of Hope Orange County to surprise one of their own before his last chemotherapy treatment.

On June 20, in a moving display of brotherhood, firefighters from across Southern California—including Corona and Orange fire departments—lined the path to the cancer center, staging a “clap-in” for Corona Fire Battalion Chief Brandon Willson, who has been battling blood cancer for the last six months. The path was bordered with colorful balloons and people holding posters.
