SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (KEYT) – The One805Live! concert to benefit local first responders rocked along the coastline tonight. Some famous neighbors stopped by Kevin Costner’s Summerland estate to support the fundraiser.

Country music superstar Trisha Yearwood played Santa Barbara for the first time ever, the day after her birthday. She was introduced by Maria Shriver who got the crowd to sing Yearwood happy birthday as she came on stage.

The Fray rocked the stage before Yearwood, getting the crowd into it straight away with their song, Over my Head (Cable Car).

The show closed out with a set from Good Charlotte and a group encore.

Long-time One805 supporter Alan Parsons performed and brought together a host of top entertainers for this one of a kind concert that also featured Steppenwolf’s John Kay, The Car’s Elliot Easton, Donovan Frankenreiter, Plastic Harpoons, and DJ Bad Ash.

The event and the cause drew people in from near and far. Wanda Brennan and Donya Lesterdrove for days to see the show.

“We drove from Cedar Town, Georgia starting last Monday to come to Santa Barbara for this great event,” Brennan said.

It’s all to benefit first responders, and the 805 community came out to support them and have a great time.

“A big shout out to One805, the leadership there,” Santa Barbara County Fire Chief Mark Hartwig said. “And of course everyone here is contributing in some way.”

Some of the area’s most famous residents showed their support, including Oprah Winfrey, who attended and chatted with local first responders including Santa Barbara County Sheriff, Bill Brown.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex took the stage. So did Rob Lowe, who received the Heart of the Community Award.

“To be able to give back is an honor and a privilege,” Lowe said.

First responders attend this event for free. They raised red glow sticks together at dusk as a symbol of the lifeline they provide to the community.

“Thank you for supporting us as we protect your safety,” Brown said to the audience from the stage.

The money raised from the show goes directly to Santa Barbara County first responders, funding mental wellness programs and critical equipment purchases. Organizers announced a one million dollar donation had been made to support an endowment for continued funding.

Thousands pay tribute to fallen firefighters during annual memorial in Colorado Springs

KRDO on September 21, 2025

Marina Garcia

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) – The annual Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial service created an overwhelming sense of community as the lives lost in 2024 were remembered and celebrated.

Three hundred eleven names were added to the Fallen Firefighters’ Wall of Honor in Colorado Springs on Saturday morning.

Whether a local to Colorado Springs or having traveled from Canada or further, people gathered for one reason: to remember the lives of firefighters who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

“When you hear a hundred bagpipes, you know, playing Amazing Grace, it puts shivers down your spine,” says Frank Lima, the general secretary treasurer of the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF).

The sound of bagpipes, firefighters marching in unity, and chairs filled with mourning families was a beautiful tribute to the impact these fallen firefighters have left behind.

And it reminds active firefighters of their enduring responsibility to the community.

“Being able to wear this flag and honor the people that I work around, and all the fallen. It’s just a great honor, privilege to be able to wear this uniform and do what I do,” says Oscar Navarro, a captain of the Goodyear Fire Department.

A widow we spoke to says being embraced by the IAFF has given her and her family a new appreciation for her late husband and his colleagues.

“I think that’s a big part of grieving is connecting with other people. And, you know, finding out how they…felt about him and how they interacted with him and just things you were never aware of before,” says widow, Kristen Silvestrich.

The IAFF says they have been coming to Colorado Springs for over twenty years, and the welcoming community is why they always come back.

When they come back next year, at least one Colorado Springs firefighter will have his name added: retired captain Patrick Rogacki, who died from job-related cancer this summer.
