Dennis will be remembered for his handsome face‚ his striking stature‚ which was matched only by the size of his heart. This love was given endlessly to his wife and children. He loved life and traveling and being in the company of family and friends. Dennis was indeed a chef‚ his fellow firefighters could attest to that as well as all who knew him. His great sense of humor made good times for the people he shared it with. The memory of Dennis‚ my husband‚ father of Dennis and Nicole‚ friend and hero will never die in our hearts. ‘We love you.’

9/11 Stadium Climb
I’ve never met Dennis, yet I’ve known him now for over 8 years, even though I met him after he died. We met on a rainy Saturday in June 2013, when I participated in a firefighter obstacle run. This was a firefighter charity event, and my team ran in the 343 Charity Wave, a heat dedicated to firefighters lost on 9/11, with each runner wearing a commemorative racer bib listing the name of a firefighter who lost his life.
I was humbled and proud to participate in the 343 Wave and wear Dennis M. Carey’s name on my chest. Thank you for reading and taking the time to learn his story. #September11
