PHOTOS - Dozens of first responders in Georgia helped fulfill an Atlanta firefighter's dying wish as they escorted him from the hospital to his home in Forsyth County, where he will receive hospice care. Frank Martinez, 45, has battled Stage 4 cancer for several years and doesn't have much longer to live, his co-worker, Cortez R. Stafford, said. Martinez is a six-year member of the Atlanta Fire Rescue Department’s Squad 4, and his last wish was to see the new Squad 4 apparatus, which was put into service just a few weeks ago.
