Firefighters Never Fight Alone
On March 3, 2017, Trucker Dukes, a 3-year-old honorary New York City Fire Fighter died in his mother’s arms. Trucker fought against Neuroblastoma since the age of 19-months and travelled to NYC for treatment. The toddler befriended many FDNY fire fighters and would visit their fire houses.
To honor their fallen brother, FDNY fire fighter's began writing Trucker’s name on their “riding lists” on the day he passed. Lists on the wall of the many fire houses had Trucker working different assignments throughout New York city. Photos of the boards where shared on social media with the hashtag “TruckerRidesWithUs". Even today, fire fighters from around the world write “FF Dukes”, ”Dukes”, or “Trucker Dukes" on their riding lists.
On March 31, 2017 the Dukes embarked on a family adventure across North America. Joshua and Shauna Dukes, along with their three older children, are driving in an RV across the United States and Canada to perform “Random Acts of Kindness” in Trucker’s name.
It's called the "Trucker Rides with Us" tour. The Dukes are reconnecting and healing from the passing of their youngest son and brother.
Thank you for loving the Dukes and being a part of their story. We know they will continue to bless so many others in the weeks and months ahead. Thank you.

When I wear my shirt, I will get to help spread this story of one amazing and courageoys 3yr old. Hopefully we can bring awareness of how pediatric cancer is so underfunded. We will never forget you Trucker boy!
I'm not sure what drew me so close to this family. Perhaps because I have a son close to Truckers age. I was on holidays when I heard of his passing an I'm not sure that I've ever cried so heard. This little man will forever be in my heart. <3
