Madison Carter is loading up her belongings to move in with her family on Wednesday.
She is one of some 30 residents who lived in the 12 apartment units in a Lincoln Park building that caught fire early Monday morning.
That fire claimed the life of Chicago firefighter Andrew Price. Carter said a group of residents visited the firehouse to pay their respects.
“It made it so raw to know he sacrificed his life to save ours,” Carter said.
While the building is boarded up, residents were allowed back in to recover what they could.
Flowers are left by the door in the fallen firefighter’s memory. And, on Wednesday morning, there was a procession as Price’s remains were moved from the medical examiner’s office to the funeral home. His loss very difficult to process for his loved ones and many friends in the department.
“It’s a tragedy that Drew’s gone,” said retired CFD spokesperson Will Knight.
