PATRICK BYRNE, 39, of New York, studied accounting for two years in community college, but "being confined to a chair – it wasn't him," said his mother, Anne Byrne. So Byrne started his own roofing company in the mid 1980s, and eventually became a firefighter, graduating from the fire academy in 1994. "He was an excellent firefighter who knew his job," said Byrne's fire Capt. Thomas Giordano. Whenever a family member would ask Byrne what he did at the firehouse, his mother said he would reply, "Fighting fires, saving lives." His mother said the response was really "tongue-in cheek," but "that's what they do, isn't it?"
May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

To Patrick Byrne's family - yesterday, my husband climbed 110 flights of stairs at the 9-11 Memorial Stair Climb in Charlotte, NC in Patrick's honor, with Patrick's name and photo on his turnout gear.
Patrick - We have not forgotten the sacrifice that you made and we live our lives knowing that actions such as yours mean that evil will never overcome good.
