A memorial service will be held the following day at 10 a.m. at the Baltimore Convention Center, the Baltimore City Fire Department said in a news release. From there, the procession will travel to Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens for interment.
A gathering for Butrim is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 3 from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. and the following day from 9 a.m. to noon at Schimunek Funeral Home in Bel Air, the union said.
