Friends and family gathered to remember the son of a Palm Beach County Fire Rescue captain Saturday.

19-year-old Hunter O'Berry died Tuesday when the homemade chopper bike he was riding on was hit by another vehicle in Jupiter Farms.

Hunter was an EMT student at Palm Beach State College and served as a Palm Beach County Fire Rescue cadet for the past 4 years.

"We love you from the bottom of our hearts," said Captain Ed O'Berry, father. "There's an army of firemen, policemen and angels on their way to fix the pain"

The funeral took place at Christ Fellowship in Palm Beach Gardens.

Hunter was laid to rest in Tequesta.
