Remembrances began Monday for FDNY EMS Lt. Alison Russo. jennamdeangelis reports.
A wake for the 25-year veteran is being heldin what police called an unprovoked attack.
"Alison was a person who came into a room and really lit up the place," said Anthony Almojera of the FDNY EMS officers union Local 3621."She loved being a medic. When I did speak to her, there was a twinge of sadness in her voice, lamenting the fact she going to retire, because I think if Alison physically could do it, she'd probably work 'til 100," Almojera said.
"There are hundreds of people walking this Earth, who have their life, thanks to Alison and don't know her name, don't even know she ever showed up," said Michael Greco, vice president of Local 2507.
