Family members, fellow officers and friends said farewell to a New York City police lieutenant who died of cancer 14 years after she worked at ground zero following the September 11 attacks.

Funeral services were held Sunday for Lt. Marci Simms, 51, of Long Island. She died of lung cancer at her home on Thursday.

Relatives said Simms was one of the thousands of first responders who worked at ground zero. They said she spent more than four months doing rescue, recovery and cleanup work among the smoldering rubble, and later became ill.
