Mortgage-Free Home for Fallen Fire Chief | Amarillo News

In a powerful act of tribute, The Tunnel to Towers Foundation paid off the full mortgage for the family of Assistant Fire Chief Scott Glass, who tragically died in October 2024 after suffering a severe head injury during a firefighting call. A decorated veteran of the U.S. Army and a 17-year Perryton Fire & EMS hero, Glass leaves behind his wife Melissa and two young children. The foundation’s Fallen First Responder Home Program ensures families with kids stay in their homes during grief, honoring the legacy of those who serve — this year aiming to gift 343 mortgage-free homes, a poignant nod to the 343 firefighters lost on 9/11.
