TRIBUTE TO (/!! FIRE HEROS FELLED Aug. 19, 2007
9/11 TERROR VICTIMS FELLED AUGUST 19, 2007
A TRIBUTE to NYFD FIREMEN
Robert Beddia & Joseph Graffagnino
DEDICATE CIVIL SERVANTS – VICTIMS of 9/11
The building has been empty since 9/11/2001, when the attack of the WTC caused extensive damage to Deutsche Bank building located at 130 Liberty Street, just across the street from the WTC.
It’s been 6 years since the attack, and six years of discussion about funding for destruction of the building. While demolition crews have begun to demolish the building, human remains kept being discovered throughout the building.
Robert Beddia was one of the first responders of the 9/11 attack, who was part of the fire company that lost many of its members in the 9/11 attack. He was memorialized in an interview by NBC news after the 9/11 attack. His emotions, showed on his face, yet he went on to serve the people of New York City, and his family.
I knew the building well. I had been the Security Director of Banker’s Trust Company, the original owner of the building before they merged with Deutche Bank. The building was a busy banking and corporate center. More than 11,000 people occupied the building during most business days. With several elevator banks, the safety and security of the building was always a priority. Banker’s Trust spent millions to insure that 130 Liberty was a safe and secure building. It had the most advanced fire safety system, security system and a securiy staff in excess of 50 personnel. Nothing spared when it came to security and safety.
The fire that took Fireman Beddia and Graffagnino’s lives was part of the hazard these hero’s faced everyday. They always knew the risk like all the firemen face every day.
The tragedy here is the lack of political, business and financing to make sure that this building was properly demolished earlier than 6 years later. Who’s to blame?
It matters now, but both fireman and their families should be recognized as Victims of the 9/11 Attack. They should be honored as an addition to the memorial being planned and the benefits should go to the families, as along with the almost 3000 victims of the initial 9/11 attack.
Join www.CrimeTalkAmerica.com in honoring these firemen with the recognition they deserve. Demand that the families of Fireman Beddia and Graffagnino receive the 9/11 benefits they deserve. Write to Mayor Bloomberg, Fire Commissioner Scopetta and the New York City Council. Let’s recognize these two true hero’s for who they are and what their lives meant to Americans.
