Tribute for fallen Jacksonville Firefighter

JACKSONVILLE (KTHV) - The tributes and support continue pouring in for a Jacksonville firefighter killed in the line of duty back in March.

The Jacksonville High School Football team presented a signed jersey to the fire department on Friday. It's all in honor of Captain Donald Jones, a 31-year veteran of the squad. He died after he was hit by a vehicle while responding to a call. The jersey will go to Station Four where Jones worked.

"Gestures like this, this is just one more reason that the department as a whole, the police department and the city will just be able to put one foot in front of the other, hold our heads high and move forward and I know Captain Jones would want us to do," said Captain Dewey Coy with the Jacksonville Fire Department.

LITTLE ROCK – Little Rock Fashion Week is back again to heat up the runways July 16-21. After much success last summer, Brandon D. Campbell, creator and executive producer of LRFW, and staff are ready to roll out the red carpet on its fourth year. 

"I’m extremely excited about Little Rock Fashion Week 2012. There’s something magical about this year. I can sense that LRFW will be even greater than previous years,” said Campbell. “People have spoke positively about LRFW and have supported our functions throughout the year. Ever since we wrapped LRFW 2011, last July, I’ve been contacted weekly by models wanting to be in LRFW 2012. That speaks volumes of LRFW’s significance and the amount of love that people have for our industry. I’m grateful.”
