I met Ed a long time ago before 9/11 ever happened . My buddy’s brother worked with Ed before his transfer to rescue. I think of him and his family often, not just on 9/11, but other days, as does another family I know who worked as an electrician in the trade center that day. We were all fellow NYers and live on Long Island, so it’s not hard to think about them and everyone who died and lived through that day. It is something you never forget. EVER! God bless all who died and their families.
– Billy KYou are not forgotten, sir. Thank you. Rest In Peace.
– J. Paul OsborneI went to high school with your son. 5 years later I joined the fire department. I always thought of you, although I didnt know you, everyday I went to work. Thank you for your sacrifice.
– Ryan LawlorEdward Rall is my distant cousin. My Great grandmother was Mildred Rall Duffy. I’m still in school, and was asked to do a report on 9/11. My Grandmother, looking at my papers, told me about him. I’m sad that I didn’t know of him sooner, but I am proud to be related to him.
– Tatum Mullen21 years ago today,
Eddie was my second cousin, my father’s first cousin. I got to finally pay my respects to him 4 years ago, when I went to the WTC for the first time. It is something I’ll never forget Unfortunately I never got the pleasure for meeting Eddie. My father has told me so many amazing stories about him. We love, miss and honor you everyday.
– Abby McLaughlinI did a 9/11 climb in crown point Indiana yesterday. I was honored to have your name selected. As a coach myself, it was really meaningful to have you chosen. You are in my thoughts and prayers. The memory of climbing for you will always stay with me.
– Sabrina StylesThank you for being my hero.
10-Sept-2023. I climbed the stair at Lambeau Field for a fund raiser for the NFFF. I am a volunteer on a small department and donned my gear during this climb to remember the fallen brothers from that day. I had the honor of caring Edwards name to the 78th floor and beyond. We will never forget the scarifies you and so many others did that day, rest easy brother we have it from here.
