Noah’s mom asked for donations to the Belvedere Fire Department, where Noah was a volunteer, in lieu of flowers.
“We just thought, we don’t want any percentage of the money to come to us. What better way would it be to honor Noah’s name than to actually make a fund in his honor,” said Chief Hyler.
The department decided to do what they thought Noah would have wanted. They’re spending the money on a scholarship to train other firefighters.
