Firefighters filled the air with laughter Sunday as they remembered a fallen FDNY fireman from Freeport who perished in the September 11th attacks.
Fifteen drill teams from across Nassau County rushed into action at the 5th annual Richard Muldowney Old Fashioned Firemen?s Tournament. They held races with ladders, buckets of water and other equipment to raise money for a fund in Muldowney?s name.
Friends say Muldowney was always the first one into a building and the last one out. They add although it?s been five years since he made his final call, he?s still in their hearts.
