On Wednesday, March 1, members from Manly and Silverdale Volunteer Fire Brigades honoured the service and sacrifice of the two fallen Muriwai volunteer firefighters, Craig Stevens and Dave van Zwanenberg, with a guard of honour in front of the Manly station.

It was a time to reflect not only on lost and absent colleagues but their grieving whānau, friends and colleagues. The siren sounded followed by a minute silence.

Members of the public also paid their respects by attending.
