Salvatore Fiumefreddo Obituary
Sal Fiumefreddo and Joan Chang had both been divorced for years and had just about given up on finding another partner. But the minute she saw him, her heart melted. "He had the most beautiful blue eyes and incredible head of black hair," she said.
Two weeks later, a friend got them together at a backyard barbecue. In six weeks they were flying to Las Vegas, where they were married in the Little White Chapel.
They would have celebrated their first wedding anniversary on Sept. 29. Instead, it became the day of Mr. Fiumefreddo's memorial service.
Mr. Fiumefreddo, 45, was a telephone technician who had been assigned to help out at Cantor Fitzgerald for one day. The day was Sept. 11.
The couple lived in Manalapan, N.J., with Mrs. Fiumefreddo's daughter, Rebecca, 7. His son, Anthony, 11, lived with his former wife. Mr. Fiumefreddo was a whiz in the kitchen, and made a great spaghetti sauce and pizza from scratch.

Remembering Salvatore on the 20th anniversary of 9/11...
Fanny Montalvo
September 6, 2021
In honor of those lost on 9/11 and to those who were my clients, my dear friends- whose kindness paid tribute to my life’s successes- Steven Chucknick and David Vera- both who I last spoke to that very morning, at 8:46am and was told of their needing to evacuate their South Tower because of a ‘fire’ in the next building - who together with Barry Young and Jose Marrero of Eurobrokers, Beverly Curry of Cantor Fitzgerald, whose laughter I had shared just two months before at a summer celebration at Windows on The World, and Sal Fiumifreddo of IPC Information Systems, whose own son and mine were born just a month apart— ‘NO DAY SHALL ERASE YOU FROM THE MEMORY OF TIME’.
Days, months, minutes and 20 years since- every memory of your voices, laughter and goodness lives eternally. In these 20 years, my days have begun and will continue with prayers for your peaceful rest and God’s comfort and blessings to your loved ones. You are spoken of, thought of, always, always missed and I will never forget.

Let us not forget to pay tribute and remembrance to those, who this week, 19 years ago, lost their lives simply by being at work; by simply- being. To those wonderful people at Eurobrokers, Cantor-Fitzgerald, and IPC Information systems- lost to us on 9-11-2001, today and always, you are those tiny bells of stars whose laughter will always be remembered. I look up to an illuminated sky and think of you always.
My dear friends- Steve, Dave, Barry, Jose, Beverly, and Sal:
"If I summon up those memories that have left with me an enduring savor, if I draw up the balance sheet, of the hours in my life that have truly counted, surely I find only those that no wealth could have procured me" -From 'The Wind, Sand, and Stars"
No matter the seconds, minutes, days, months or years that have passed, this day will always seem like just a moment ago. No matter the seconds, minutes, days, months or years that will come and pass- you will never- not for a moment, be forgotten by all of us who knew you, and whose lives you touched and enriched. Rest in peace and know, my friends, you will forever be remembered. Our laughs, your kindness, and all of what made you those amazing human beings will live always in my heart.
A 9/11/17 Tibute in Honor of My Friend, Sal.

No matter the seconds, minutes, days, months or years that will come and pass- you will never be forgotten by all of us who knew you, and whose life you touched. Rest in peace and know, my friend, you will forever be remembered.

Always Remembered

Another school year-underway, holidays- merely round the corner.
Lives- busy, things- happening, and another
September 11th- here-
A day to stop, reflect, remember...
"I am not here, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, the diamond glints upon a snow's fall. I am the sun on ripened grain. The gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in a morning's hush, I am that swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am those soft stars that shine at night; those stars that paint your sky with light"...
To those I knew for a quarter of a century's worth- you are more than the yearly pictures and names flashed for mere seconds on a television screen, more than just a name etched upon a granite slate- you are those amazing souls that I, and so many others respectfully regarded, lost as former clients who came to be my dear friends: Steve Chucknick, Dave Vera, Barry Young, Jose Marrero of Eurobrokers, Beverly Curry of Cantor Fitzgerald, and Sal Fiumefreddo of IPC- You are carried and live within many a mind and heart always. You are those shining stars which will forever paint the skies.
I will always be thankful to you for your kindness, your guidance, and above all else, the friendship I grew accustomed to- which every day, without, I am so deeply amiss of.
-Fanny

My dear lost friend Sal,
Preparations are being made for honoring you all from our loss of you 10 years ago. We are all 10 years older, yet time in our hearts has stood so very still and it feels like just yesterday every day when we think of you all. The world and how we live has changed since that day that began so innocently for all of you. I remember the first weekend after that tragic day- walking down the area, and wanting to scream out all of your names in search for you all and not wanting to believe you were all gone.
There's a memorial wall that has been built;engraved with all of your names. I look to the day of being able to quietly stand aside it, touch your names, look up to the heavens and ask God to continue to hold you all safely in his care.
Rest in peace, dear friend. You remain missed and in my prayers.

As I searched through the names of all who lost their lives on that tragic day, your's was the only name I recognized. I was one of your bowling teammates at Howell lanes in the early 90's. You were an amazingly positive & funny guy. What a tragic loss to all who knew you.

Last night, when I wrote my original message, I was very tired and very surprised to have found this page. I forgot to mention a very important person, Joan's daughter, Rebecca.
Sal, rest assured that we've got Rebecca, too!
We will never forget!

Sal was the only person I personally knew who tragically lost his life on 9-11. I grew up with Sal on Staten Island and have alot of memories (all good) of the many laughs we all shared while he was living in Oakwood. While it is so hard to understand why ... I pray for his family to heal and carry on his memory for many years to come.

My husband, Gerard and I, loved Sal. We couldn't have been any closer. Always with us before he met his wife, Joan.
Sal, you'll forever be missed and loved. As a final tribute to you, and the last thing we can ever really do for you, know that we've got Joan and Anthony by our sides and in our hearts. We will stand by them forever.
With much love,
Candace (Gerard & Ryan, too!)

America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn
