The keen of bagpipes, a three-volley gun salute and a bugle sounding taps pierced the air of a small Pennsylvania town as hundreds gathered to honor an ex-fire chief who was shot and killed at a rally for former President Donald Trump. Corey Comperatore’s funeral was held in Cabot on Friday. Afterward, three firefighters stood sentry on the back of a fire truck bearing Comperatore's casket, trailed by a parade of more than 100 other emergency vehicles. Officials have said that Comperatore spent his final moments shielding his wife and daughter from gunfire at Trump’s rally last Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump didn't attend the funeral because of Secret Service concerns.

    Rest in peace Corey 🙏🏼 and I pray for the injured victims quick recovery and healing 💚
  • I am so sorry for his family! But I would do the same thing to protect my children and grandchildren. My husband passed away 18 years and the time has really gone by so fast, it’s hard to believe it’s been 18 years. He died from cancer caused by where he worked building and designing the things used for Defense of America. After my husband died many people picketed the building because they knew it was contaminated but Congress refused to do anything about it. 5 other people in his small area where his office was also came down with the same type of cancer. They finally after loosing one of our country’s best Defense Engineers who had 3 college degrees, they tore down the building and even hauled away the dirt underneath. I don’t know where they dumped it. It was always the democrats who turned down spending for the workers safety. Just like when Carter was the President he made them set the temperature in the winter at 55 even if it was 0 degrees outside and my husband had to wear long underwear, corduroy pants, long sleeve shirt, sweater over that and a wool jacket over that and sit at his desk trying to hold his pen and write reports all while he was freezing, then in the summer he made them set the air conditioning at 80 degrees. We had gas rationing and he made life miserable. That is why Carter had the title of the worst President for a long time but now he has been replaced.

    Sadly I've been to 2 LODD losses in 1 Dept in less than 10 years apart with my husbands Dept. There are no words to describe the heartbreak when witnessing these funerals. The funerals I went to with those were military and having the 21 gun salute and taps always was worse. Now adding the bagpipes crushes me. My heart is breaking for the fire family, his personal family and the community. #thinredlinefamily Rest easy we've got it from her brother.
