The death toll rises each day for the small town of Kingman, Arizona in the weeks following July 5, 1973.
Witness and hospital volunteer, “K,” remembers how fellow Kingman residents stepped up to care for the children of those families whose head-of-households were either injured or deceased. She engages in one of the hardest conversations of her life, when the young daughter of a burned firefighter innocently repeats what she’s hearing from her peers. “Someone said my Daddy’s a DEAD MAN. K my Daddy is NOT a DEAD MAN right?”
Despite the tragedy, turmoil and tears, the town of Kingman will triumph as they ban together to honor those lost and share in recovery efforts inspiring courage and community.
