Obituary
Send FlowersTaking the Ribbing
Karl Joseph was a "probie," a probationary firefighter, at Engine Company 207 in downtown Brooklyn after joining the department in October 2000. The senior guys played pranks on him ‹ a throwback to high school days ‹ but he took it well. "When you're a probie, you really can't respond back to the veterans," said Michael Beehler, a firefighter who went through the fire academy with Mr. Joseph and worked with him at 207.
"Karl had a way of shrugging off the ribbing. He had a great smile and a great laugh," Mr. Beehler said. "As far as the job, he was top-notch."
Mr. Joseph would have turned 26 on Nov. 5. He was a native of Haiti. His parents fled the chaotic country with their nine children to stake their claim in America, said Lucy Bouciquot, a family friend. "He liked Haiti," she said, "but America was his home."

I traveled from Los Angeles County Fire and attended his funeral. I carried his funeral card with me on the back of my helmet shield and carried it with me until I retired July 1st 2021. I retired his picture with my helmet shield to a shadow box on my office wall.
I'd like his family to know that.

I wore his name yesterday as I climbed 67 flights of stairs in honor of those who died that fateful day. Thank you for your service and sacrifice may we never forget.
