HONORING Fred Davis upon the occasion of his
designation for special recognition after 20 years
of dedicated service to the Williston Park Fire

WHEREAS, Citizens across our State and Nation are inspired by and
indebted to our noble firefighters who exhibit courage and bravery every
day in the course of their duties; and
WHEREAS, Firefighters exemplify the power of human compassion and
the strength of the American spirit through actions of the most heroic
magnitude; their sacrifices and their selfless dedication merit tribute
and recognition by all citizens of this great country; and
WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to honor Fred Davis
upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition after 20
years of dedicated service to the Williston Park Fire Department to be
celebrated at the Annual Inspection and Inspection Dinner on April 25,
2026, at the Milleridge Cottage in Jericho, New York; and
WHEREAS, Beginning his service in April of 2006, Fred Davis has
consistently demonstrated a level of commitment, dedication, integrity
and professionalism which truly exemplifies excellence in the fire
service; and
WHEREAS, As a member of Hook and Ladder Company No. 2, Fred Davis
has proudly served as 2nd Lieutenant, 1st Lieutenant, Captain, and
Warden; and
WHEREAS, Firefighters unwaveringly serve our great State with pride,
valor, and integrity; these respected heroes are often the first to
respond to an emergency, whether the emergency is a fire, transportation
accident, natural disaster, act of terrorism, medical crisis, or spill
of hazardous materials; and
WHEREAS, It takes a special dedication, a strong desire to help
others and a tireless sense of community to forsake precious time with
family and friends to respond to the signal that a neighbor is in need;
Fred Davis is such a firefighter; throughout 20 years of devoted
service, he heroically performed, above and beyond the call of duty,
those responsibilities which define the task of fire protection; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Fred Davis upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 20 years of dedicated service to the Williston Park
