Special KCFD Royals tribute hats will go on sale Thursday

The specially designed Royals hats Andrew Romano made as a tribute to the Kansas City Fire Department firefighters who died fighting a three-story blaze Monday will be sold to the public.

Romano, owner of Cumpy’s T-Shirt Shop, announced Wednesday morning that the KCFD Royals hats will cost $25 and that proceeds will benefit the families of Larry J. Leggio and John V. Mesh, the firefighters who were killed when a wall collapsed as they battled an inferno in the 2600 block of Independence Avenue.

“Starting (Thursday) at 10 o’clock, they’re going to go on sale to the public with proceeds going to the families,” Romano said.
