- Raised in Queens and Long Island, Michael Boyle lived in Manhattan. A firefighter in FDNY Engine Company 33 with a passion for politics, Michael had rearranged his schedule to take off Election Day—September 11—to work for the campaign of a City Council candidate with a friend, Firefighter David Arce. Instead, both men responded to the towers, where they perished. Firefighter Boyle was 37 years old.
