FDNY Hero Rescues Thousands Before Losing His Life on 9/11

June 16, 2009 - PRLog -- Author Michael Mozzillo knew that before his son perished at the Trade Center he was a part of the biggest rescue effort in the history of the world. On 9/11/2001, Christopher Mozzillo helped save 25,000 lives; this is the story of a true American hero.

Michael and his son made it a point every evening to tell each other about their day. After Chris’s death, Michael replaced their daily talks with writing to his son every night. The excerpts from his journals turned into this dedication to his son, his hero. It reveals the tragic pain and difficult recovery process that the family faced, the kindness shown from people all over the world and his perspective on the operations at the Trade Center recovery site.  This loving memoir takes you through Chris’s life and shares his generous spirit with the world.

Words from a proud father “…He was a handsome, strong young man who stood 5'11" had blonde hair and blue eyes. He had a dimple on his chin that the girls loved. He was strong as an ox and had a heart of gold… He was extremely protective of his younger brother Danny and his sister Pam as well as of his mother Lydia. He never refused anything anyone ever asked of him…”—Michael Mozzillo.
