On the night of Friday, May 11th,
2007, Butler County Fire District # 3 responded to a report of a fully involved
house fire in the Sienna Ranch housing community in Rose Hill. While responding
to the fire, Firefighter Daley lost control of his personal vehicle, causing it
to roll several times near the entrance to
Sienna Ranch. Firefighter Daley was transported in extremely critical condition
to Kansas Medical Center in Andover, KS by Butler County EMS, but sustained
injuries that proved to be fatal and passed away shortly after arriving at the
hospital.
Brandon joined Butler County Fire District # 3 in December 2006 as a volunteer
firefighter and was very excited about becoming a member of the department. He was attending
the Firefighter I certification class that was being conducted by the
department and also attending Butler County Community College, where he was
studying as an EMT student. He had previously been a member of the EMS Explorer post sponsored
by the local volunteer EMS group Medic 50 and was currently a law enforcement cadet with
the Rose Hill Police Department.
Brandon's fellow firefighters and all the local emergency responders wish to express their deepest sympathies to
Brandon's family and their thoughts and prayers are with them in their time of sorrow.
