On March 4th, 2023 FDNY Firefighter John Fanelli (retired) died suddenly and tragically at the age of 48. John was a 9/11 First Responder who suffered health issues related to his service. He leaves behind his beloved wife Kim and four children, aged 17 to 5 years old. John retired from the FDNY with 22 years of service, 19 years as a Firefighter and 3 years as an EMT. He also served his community in the Massapequa Fire Department for 12 years, reaching the rank of lieutenant. Being a firefighter wasn't what John did, it was who he was. He touched so many lives in a positive way through his years of selfless service. Please donate to help his family navigate this incredibly difficult time.
