MUNCIE, Ind. - A Muncie firefighter who died last year when a roof collapsed during a blaze will be honored at a national memorial service.

The National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service will honor Muncie firefighter Scott Davis on Oct. 7 at the National Fire Academy in Emmitsburg, Md.

The Star Press reported the 40-year-old father of three was killed in June 2011 while fighting a fire at a church.

Davis is one of 80 firefighters who died in 2011. Five firefighters who died in previous years also will be remembered at the service.

The names of those firefighters who died in the line of duty will be added to the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial at the academy.
