A funeral service will be held Tuesday for the Bristol deputy fire chief who died in a single car accident last week.

Deputy Fire Chief Frank Sousa was traveling west on Sowams Road Thursday evening when his truck crossed both north and south lanes of the road, striking a metal fence before coming to rest on the north side of the building at 535 Metacom Avenue.

His funeral service will be held today at 10 am at the George Lima Funeral Home. It will be followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 11 am at St. Mary’s Church.
