Local firehouses across the city commemorated the 25th anniversary of 9\/11 today.<\/p>\n

Here’s a scene from this morning outside Engine Company 5 on 14th Street, between First Avenue and Second Avenue, during a moment of silence.<\/p>\n

On Sept. 11, 2001, the Company lost Manny DelValle Jr.<\/a>, a 7-year FDNY veteran who grew up in the Bronx. He was 32.<\/p>\n

Here’s more about him from his obituary in The New York Times<\/a>:<\/p>\n

At home in the Bronx, Mr. DelValle took advanced classes in salsa dancing. He loved Latin music but listened to everything. “Rap,” said his brother Pete Moyer. “And R&B,” added his sister Grace Nolly. “Old school,” said his father, Manuel Del Valle, to be specific.<\/p>\n

Mr. DelValle, who graduated from the University of Maryland, was also an accomplished moguls skier and roller skater, a traveler, a lover of war movies and, his family says, a lady’s man. He also got Engine Company No. 5, where he was assigned, to participate in the Puerto Rican Day Parade. He was the one in the family who always sent a card and gift to siblings, half-siblings and cousins.<\/p>\n

According to reports, 26 firefighters from the neighborhood’s four firehouses lost their lives on 9\/11.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Photo by Greg Masters\u00a0 Local firehouses across the city commemorated the 25th anniversary of 9\/11 today.
