Michael Burke

William “Billy” Burke, Jr., was the namesake of Deputy Assistant Chief of Department William Burke, a high-ranking officer in New York City’s Fire Department. He followed in his father’s footsteps and entered the FDNY. Billy, a captain, was lost in the North Tower on 9/11. His family today refers to him as Captain Billy Burke, FDNY, which is the way he liked to describe himself. Billy was one of six children, and his younger brother Michael describes his peregrinations through the clouds of New York politics in trying to memorialize his hero brother appropriately.
