About Me:: Proud to have served my final role at Ground Zero immediately after the 911 attacks on freedom. Became disabled and retired 9 months after that service due to the exposures on site. Father of 3 great kids, two daughters, one college graduate, one in her 3rd year of college and one US MARINE. Married to my angel after September 11th and have 4 more kids, BRADY BUNCH!

Why I Joined Fire/EMS: To do the right thing. To be an example to my children and to serve my community.

Why I Love Fire/EMS: Each day I am blessed to help others in need is a chance to pay tribute to our loved ones lost on 911.

Top Issues Facing Responders:: Proper training and equipment of those in need including the children in these communities who need to learn about fire prevention, safety and community service
