It’s a somber day in Worcester as the city marks the 15th anniversary of a warehouse fire that claimed the lives of six firefighters. A ceremony is scheduled for later Wednesday at the Franklin Street Fire station, which sits on the site of what was once the Worcester Cold Storage and Warehouse Company. The fire that investigators said was started by two homeless people destroyed the building On Dec. 3, 1999. Lt. Thomas Spencer, Lt. Timothy Jackson Sr., Lt. James Lyons III, and firefighters Jeremiah Lucey, Paul Brotherton and Joseph McGuirk died after becoming trapped in the inferno.
