Steve Buscemi and wife Jo Andres shared son Lucian. She put it together when she visited his apartment for the first time and saw one of the posters there. When they first started talking, she didn’t immediately realise he was the guy on the posters. She once remarked to a friend upon seeing one, “I'm going to snag that guy.” He was in a comedy duo at the time and there were handmade posters of his likeness around the neighbourhood. He was an NYC firefighter, doing comedy during his time off. They lived in the same NYC neighbourhood, the East Village, and Buscemi would hurry outside to walk his dog when he knew she would be coming home from work. I think it was just a whole series of ‘Oh, I don't get to do this anymore.’” I really don't think she was afraid of dying. She was surrounded by friends and family. “If I should happen to go not suddenly, I hope I could be as present as Jo was,” he said. There's just no way around it.”īuscemi admitted he hadn't thought much about death before that - but that has changed. “People who are going through that, it's painful. “The pain was the hardest thing,” Buscemi admitted.
