Today, members of the Volunteer Hose Company of Middletown, the volunteer fire service, United States Marines Corps, friends and family of volunteer firefighter Kenny Poplos paid their final respects in a ceremony held in Middletown Memorial Hall. An estimated attendance of over 800 people visited the viewing Tuesday evening, with another 350 today for the funeral service. The procession, which was as far as the eye could see, ended at Old Drawyers where he was laid to rest. The officers and members of the Volunteer Hose Company of Middletown would like to thank everyone who assisted, offered to assist and called to express their condolences for the loss experienced during the past week.
