The Job Shirt Store is selling two different t-shirts to raise money for the families. One says "Hoff-Strong" for injured firefighter Joseph Hofstetter. The other shirt has two helmets on it in honor of the fallen, Tomasz Kaczowka and Mike Chiapperini. The owners say they wanted to do this because they have a personal connection the firefighters.

I respect and honor this company for doing this, but why is Theodore Scardino being forgotten? Don't you think his family will be hurt when they see this?? He too is a hero.
