Funeral arrangements have been announced for an Irmo firefighter who died responding to a Columbia apartment fire.

The funeral for James Michel Muller is set for 2 p.m. Wednesday, May 31, at Riverland Hill Baptist Church (201 Lake Murray Blvd. in Irmo), according to Caughman-Harman Funeral Home. A private interment will follow with the family receiving friends after the service.

Muller, 25, was killed in a structural collapse responding to a massive multi-alarm fire at the Tropical Ridge apartment complex in Columbia May 26.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation by Columbia Police, the state Law Enforcement Division, and S.C. State Fire.

Firefighters from Columbia and Irmo responded to the blaze.

“Fire protection services from multiple fire departments were performing interior suppression activities when this tragedy occurred,” Irmo Fire Chief Mark Sonefeld said in a statement.

Multiple local fire and law enforcement agencies and government leaders expressed their condolences following Muller’s death, and a graphic featuring the Irmo Fire seal in black with a thin red line across it has been posted by many across social media to show support.
