Remembering FDNY Lt. Joseph Maiello; widow to run Tunnel to Towers 5K
Irene Maiello and her late husband — FDNY Lt. Joseph Maiello — were supporters of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. She'd run the 5K several times and he'd served as a sideline banner holder. Then last December, Joseph died while on duty at his firehouse — and Maiello's family went from being supporters of the foundation to beneficiaries.
