Description

One of Anthony Sean "Sauce" Phillips' biggest desires in life was to become a
firefighter. After seven years of prayer and waiting for the call, God answered.

Filled with excitement and encouragement from his wife, Lysa, and his mother,
Dee, Anthony walked into Engine Company 10, dubbed "The House of Pain," in
Washington, DC, ready to do what God had called him to do, serve others and
his community.

HE ANSWERED THE CALL: Coping with Our Loss-The Family's, Friends', and
Firefighters' Perspectives shares the real-life, sensitive story of Anthony "Sauce"
Phillips' final call to duty by those who loved him and those who worked beside
him, sharing their struggles of his passing, how it impacted them personally and
professionally, and the mechanisms they have used to cope over the years.
Losing a loved one is traumatic, whether a family member or a friend. Losing
them in the line of duty, with no warning, can be even more detrimental. It is
also an overwhelming, frightening, and painful experience. Those left to mourn
often find themselves in a complex web of emotions. Although death is beyond
our control, the wonderful memories left behind can shine the light on how such
a tragedy can transform into a testimony for others as they cope with their loss.
