Joey Woods was a Trenton firefighter who died in the line of duty. He was 25 years old.

"Two Trenton firefighters died while battling a three-alarm blaze at Shenanigan's Saloon located at 121 South Warren Street. Firefighter Robert J. Mizopalko, 33, a six-year veteran assigned to Ladder 4, and Firefighter Joseph N. Woods, 25, a three-year veteran assigned to Engine 10, became trapped in the burning tavern and ultimately died of smoke inhalation after their SCBA bottles ran out. Several rescue attempts were hampered by the extremely heavy fire and heat conditions inside the bar."
