No Responders Left Behind with John Feal & Joe Sabia
As the Founder of the FealGood Foundation, John Feal has had incredible achievements and continues the tremendous goals he’s set for himself either by choice or challenge. On 9/11/01, this great country witnessed its worst terrorist attack ever on American soil. We lost 2,751 innocent lives to senseless violence. During our nation’s darkest hours, the resolve and testament of the American people were tested. From the toxic dust rose heroes; true American Patriots. These were men and women, uniform and non-uniform who risked their lives without prejudice to ensure the safety of our nation. Since that dark day in history, hundreds and soon to be thousands have lost their lives to 9/11 related illnesses. The FeelGood Foundation’s mission is includes educating elected officials and private entities on the various problems, concerns and issues faced by First Responders in their everyday duties. John has also received the NYS Congressional ‘Medal of Honor for Civilians Above & Beyond’ for his continuous advocacy and for donating a kidney to a complete stranger. http://fealgoodfoundation.com/
Joe Sabia was a firefighter in the Commack Fire Department for 30 years, and was a First Responder in the 9/11 disaster, dispatched to the World Trade Center. After retiring, Joe and his family moved to Castle Pines to open his popular restaurant Pino’s Italian Kitchen & Bar. The inspiration for the restaurant was Joe’s father, Pino, who was a very we’ll known Chef from Long Island, NY. When Pino died suddenly of pancreatic cancer, Joe’s wife Allison said, “don’t let his chef legacy die with him”. Pino’s Italian Kitchen and Bar was established in January of 2017, offering the classic Italian dishes inspired by Chef Pino. As a participant in the FeelGood Foundation, Joe generously hosts fundraising events at his restaurant, not only creating additional awareness of FGF, but also raising money so that no responder is left behind. www.pinositaliankitchenbar.com
