From the Associated Press — A large mural honoring a firefighter and other Detroit public employees who died from COVID-19 has been unveiled next to a fire station. Captain Franklin Williams of the fire department dominates the painting. But there are images of a bus driver who made an emotional plea for protection from COVID-19 before he caught the virus. There’s also a 5-year-old girl who was the daughter of a firefighter and police officer. The mural is on the side of a building owned by the Arab American and Chaldean Council. Odie Fakhouri says the mural honors people who put on a uniform to fight COVID-19.
