Tributes to fallen firefighter Jared Lloyd continue to pour in with one message coming all the way from Tampa Bay.

Tampa Bay Bucaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski posted a message to the family and friends of Lloyd.

"I want to send a special message to the family and friends of Jared Lloyd and to my home state New York," said Gronkowski.

The former Pro Bowler and current Super Bowl champ heard that Lloyd was a big fan of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and so he sent the message to his family and Spring Valley colleagues. Lloyd was killed while battling a fire in Spring Valley.

This message is just one example of many that have come in from across the country thanking the father of two for his sacrifice.
