John Kevin McAvoy was 47 years old and from Staten Island, New York. John was a firefighter with New York City Fire Department Ladder Company 3.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, John was in the firehouse in street clothes and off duty when the first plane hit. He and another fireman put on their gear, hailed a cab and went to the World Trade Center by cab.
"He loved his job more than anything," John's wife said. "He listened to the scanner all day long so he wouldn't miss anything. He loved the excitement of the job. He could have retired four years ago, but he wanted to stay on."
