The Memorial Presbyterian Church steeple is sporting a blue light and the yearly roll call of heroes is ready, both in preparation of Sunday's Project Blue Light. Members of the public are invited to the ceremony, set for 6 p.m. at the church, 1310 Ashman St. It is to honor all police, deputies, firefighters and paramedics who have died in the line of duty or while employed, plus their survivors and those who still work to keep the public safe. This year, organizer Mary Fisher of Midland has been busy finding additional ways to honor loved ones lost while protecting citizens. One of her projects was working to make sure three Midland firefighters who died in the 1960s were recognized with their names engraved on the Michigan Fallen Heroes Memorial in Pontiac. The memorial is the only one in the state that honors both law enforcement and firefighters who have lost their lives in the line of duty.
