Bowed heads surrounded the Fireman’s Memorial located on West 100th street as brown leaves fell from the surrounding trees. The annual ceremony looked to honor members of the department who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Mayor Adams and Commissioner Kavanagh both laid a large wreath at the foot of the monument before presenting family members with the American flag and medals.
Members of the FDNY stood with a salute while families wept, and others held each other’s hands. The somber occasion left many choked up, even Mayor Adams appeared taken by the moment as he stood at the podium and looked at the sea of New York’s bravest. “How do you lose a loved one who has committed and dedicated his or her life to fight on behalf of protecting our city? How do you come up with the answer,” the mayor asked, sharing the difficulty of bearing such news to families alongside the Fire Commissioner and FDNY chiefs.
