From article:

Alvarez, 53, was among thousands of first responders who spent months digging through the rubble for survivors, then bodies. He died Saturday after a years-long battle with cancer he blamed on three months toiling at Ground Zero.

Police Commissioner James O'Neill eulogized Alvarez as a dedicated officer who fought to ensure that the needs of first responders won't be ignored. He noted that 23 police officers died the day of the attack – and 222 have died since. He implored Congress to reauthorize the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund.
