A TRIBUTE TO EDWARD DAY ~ ENGINE 28, LADDER 11 NYC FIRE DEPARTMENT LOST IN THE WTC DISASTER OF 911

A TRIBUTE TO EDWARD DAY ~ ENGINE 28, LADDER 11 NYC FIRE DEPARTMENT LOST IN THE WTC DISASTER OF 911
Warm Humor, Frozen Shoes Edward Day did not just extinguish fires. He extinguished grouchiness. At Engine Company 28 and Ladder 11 on the Lower East Side, where Mr. Day, 45, was a firefighter, he kept a sharp eye out for grumpy colleagues. They got the Day treatment: smiley face stickers slapped on their helmets. Whenever he stayed at his mother's house in Newport, R.I., he would make the bed when he was ready to leave and then drop a dollar on it with a note, "For the maid." His mother liked to give what she called the last Christmas party of the year, held well into January. Mr. Day had a ritual at the parties: he collected all the bottle caps from exhausted beer bottles and deposited them throughout the house in her plants. His wife, Bridgitte, was a fervent Clint Eastwood fan, so he would sign his cards to her, "Clint Eastwood." "He was always ready to make you laugh," said Tim Day, his brother, "whether he knew you for 20 years or 20 minutes." The first time Eddy Day met Tim's wife, Essie, he asked if she wanted a glass of wine. Sure, she said. He brought it out and handed it to her. "Excuse me," he said, and bent over and slipped off her shoes. As she watched, mystified, he marched into the kitchen and put them in the freezer. Profile published in THE NEW YORK TIMES on October 13, 2001.

From Online about The DAY Family Tree

The Day family has roots in Paterson, New Jersey, with documented connections to individuals such as Ruth Catherine (Dunn) Day, who was born in 1916 and died in 1971, and resided at 5 Lake Avenue, Paterson, NJ. She was the daughter of John Francis Dunn and Sara Veronica (Craig) Dunn and the mother of Jan Amenta, Ike Day, Doris Ann Day, and other children. Jan Amenta, a prominent genealogist and descendant of the Day family, has been actively researching and documenting the family history, particularly focusing on the Paterson area, including records from the NJ State Archives, the Church of Latter Day Saints, and the Paterson Library. Her research suggests that the Day family may have been part of the "poor" side of the family, which often resulted in fewer preserved records due to limited documentation. ABOUT THE Surname DAY: The Day surname has multiple origins, including occupational roots as a dairyman or dairymaid in English, and as a pet form of David or Ralph in northern England. In Ireland, it is an Anglicized form of the Gaelic Ó Deaghaidh. The family's presence in Paterson is further supported by historical records, including census data from 1940 and 1950, and burial records from Calvary Cemetery and Mausoleum in Paterson. Additionally, genealogical resources such as WikiTree and Ancestry provide tools for tracing the Day family lineage, with connections to other families like the Dunn, Amenta, and Gaskill. Day family genealogies: The Day family tree from Paterson, NJ, is a rich and detailed genealogical record that spans several generations. The family's history is documented through various records and genealogical resources, including the NJ State Archives, Church of Latter Day Saints, and Paterson Library. The Day family has been a subject of genealogical research for many years, with individuals like Janice Day Amenta and others contributing to the understanding of the family's lineage. The Day family's history is not only a testament to the family's enduring presence in Paterson but also a reflection of the broader historical context of the area.
