HONORING John Kornrumpf upon the occasion of his
designation for special recognition after 30 years
of dedicated service to Oyster Bay Fire Company No.

WHEREAS, Citizens across our State and Nation are inspired by, and
indebted to, our noble volunteer firefighters who exhibit courage and
bravery every day in the course of their duties; and
WHEREAS, Volunteer firefighters exemplify the power of human
compassion and the strength of the American spirit through actions of
the most heroic magnitude; their sacrifices and selfless dedication
merit tribute and recognition by all citizens of this great country; and
WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to honor John
Kornrumpf, upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition
after 30 years of dedicated service to Oyster Bay Fire Company No. 1, to
be recognized at its Installation Dinner at the Fox Hollow Inn in
Woodbury, New York, on Friday, May 8, 2026; and
WHEREAS, John Kornrumpf has consistently demonstrated a level of
commitment, dedication, integrity, and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the volunteer service; he has been a role
model to members throughout his entire career since joining Oyster Bay
Fire Company No. 1; and
WHEREAS, Firefighters unwaveringly serve our great State with pride,
valor, and integrity; these respected volunteers 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;
John Kornrumpf is such a firefighter; throughout his years of devoted
service, this volunteer 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 John Kornrumpf upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 30 years of dedicated service to Oyster Bay Fire
Company No. 1; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to John Kornrumpf.
