RIP Brother!

Wasn't his death the reason why the FDNY finally switched to Bunker Gear or something?

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

I don't know.

[@emt5330]

thisissparta789789 it had a lot to do with it.

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

Oh, that's interesting! Absolutely he was very nice. I'd met him only 45 minutes but never forgotten!

Christopher's father is my stepfather. I'm sure he'd love to see this video. I'll make sure he does. Thanks for posting!

Chris, You are missed everyday. I still think of you with your green dyed mustache during the 94 Saint Patricks day parade down Forest ave on Staten Island and also the Halloween party in 93 where when asked what your costume was you said " I am a Firefighter on vacation".

[@kurtdog119]

Rest in peace Firefighter Siedenburg. FDNY is now missing 346 men. That's the 343 men from 9-11-01, including you, Firefighter Siedenburg, Firefighter Young, and Captain Drennan from March 28, 1994. Rest in peace, Fireman Siedenburg.

RIP Brother. Great Video. Wonder if his family has seen it.

[@glenns5914]

Sadly Chris' Mother passed away. His Father, Charlie, recently passed away also. His brother, Charlie, is heavily involved in art at Wagner College. I think about Chris ever day. He was a wonderful person.
