The technical sergeant was serving in Afghanistan with a security forces unit attached to the New York Air National Guard.

Lemm, who lived in West Harrison, is survived by his widow, Christine, and two children, Brooke and Ryan. He was nicknamed "Superman." 

The New York Tenors, along with the Clyde McPhatter's Drifters and other artists, are performing to raise money for the family.
