Funeral Plans Set For Fallen Watertown Firefighter
WATERTOWN (AP) — Funeral plans have been announced for a Massachusetts firefighter who collapsed while battling a house fire and died.
The family of Watertown firefighter Joseph Toscano says visiting hours will be held from 4 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Randolph. A funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. Wednesday at St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Watertown.
