Hundreds of Minnesota firefighters turned out to honor one of their own. Tim Royce, 58, of the Mapleton Fire Department died of an apparent heart-attack shortly after responding to two emergency calls on March 30. Less than 24 hours after responding to the two calls and a participating in a training exercise, Royce was found unconscious at the local grocery store where he works. Several of his fellow firefighters responded and realized it was Royce, one of their own, who had suffered a heart attack.
