After Lt. Edward Walsh died in a nine-alarm fire in Boston last week, Walsh’s wife Kristen had just one request: find her husband’s wedding band.
Boston firefighters sifted through the ashes and found Kristen's last memento of her husband. When District Chief Richard Magee Jr. finally handed the ring to her, Kristen "took the ring and slid it on her finger. It was big, real big, but it fit in all the ways that matter," Boston Globe reporter Kevin Cullen wrote (http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2014/04/01/the-ring/eZS0RApMtvdqKHUVSkc4OL/story.html).
