Mychal Judge
Mychal Judge, O.F.M. (aka Michael Fallon Judge, May 11, 1933September 11, 2001), was a Franciscan friar and Catholic priest who served as a chaplain to the New York City Fire Department. It was while serving in that capacity that he was killed, becoming the first certified fatality of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
==Early life==
Mychal Judge was born Robert Emmett Judge on May 11, 1933 in Brooklyn, New York, the son of immigrants from County Leitrim, Ireland, and the firstborn of a pair of fraternal twins. His twin sister Dympna was born two days later. Judge was baptized in St. Paul's Church in Brooklyn on June 4. They and their older sister Erin, grew up during the Great Depression.〔Ford, Michael (September 1, 2002). (Judge%2C Robert Emmett&f=false ''Father Mychal Judge: An Authentic American Hero'' ). Paulist Press. p. 44. Google Books. Retrieved March 28, 2014.〕
From the ages of three to six, he watched his father suffer and die of mastoiditis, a slow and painful illness of the skull and inner ear. To earn income following his father's death, Judge shined shoes at New York Penn Station and would visit St. Francis of Assisi Church, located across the street. Seeing the Franciscan friars there, he later said, "I realized that I didn't care for material things... I knew then that I wanted to be a friar."〔Daly, Michael, ''The Book of Mychal: The Surprising Life and Heroic Death of Father Mychal Judge''. St. Martin's Press (2008). pp. 7–19.〕
