Hundreds turned out for the funeral for Oxford Fire Chief Gary Sacco Saturday at the Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School gymnasium. Sacco passed away after a medical issue he experienced while attending the funeral of Capt. Joel Barnes.

Sacco was a firefighter for years and served as Chief of the New Gloucester Fire Department before becoming Chief of Norway Fire and Rescue.

As is tradition with fallen firefighters, a ceremonial final call is made to the officer by dispatch at the funeral service.

Chief Sacco was 63.
