Alan D. Feinberg, 48, served with FDNY Battalion 9. Born in Brooklyn, he lived in Marlboro, New Jersey, with his wife, Wendy, and their children, Tara and Michael. Colleagues considered him an excellent firefighter, and what they remembered most was how readily he helped others, whatever the problem. He responded to the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001; his battalion lost 32 men in all.
