Death of ACT Fire Brigade Senior Firefighter (qualified) David Balfour was by a falling tree near burned out Marysville yesterday
Firefighter Balfour was a member of the ACT Fire Brigade on assignment from neighboring Canberra.
“One drop in the pond sends out a ripple effect all the way to the edge of the pond.”
Statement from Celia Balfour
It is with my deepest regret that I inform friends, work colleagues and the greater Canberra community that my husband of twenty years and father of my three children aged 14, 13 and 10 David James Balfour has passed away. David was a professional fire-fighter with the A.C.T. fire brigade for 11 years in which time he undertook specialised training in many key areas.
He was on a task force from Canberra helping in the Victorian fire disaster. He was tragically killed when a tree, decimated by the fires, fell on him.
