Terence Pfeifer, the son of Ray Pfeifer, was one of 311 members joining the FDNY’s ranks on Wednesday at a special graduation celebration in Brooklyn.
“This department is a family and very often children follow their parents into the profession,” FDNY Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro told those in attendance at the Christian Cultural Center in East New York. “I myself did the same thing 49 years ago.”
During his remarks, Nigro singled out Pfeifer and his father, who died of a 9/11-related illness “a year ago today.”
