Senate Resolution No. 738
 
BY: Senator MARTINS
 
        COMMENDING   Firefighter  Brian  Downey  upon  the
        occasion of his designation for special  recognition
        after 20 years of dedicated service to the Williston
        Park Fire Department
 
  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  their  selfless
dedication merit tribute and recognition by all citizens of  this  great
country; and
 
  WHEREAS,   This   Legislative   Body  is  justly  proud  to  commend
Firefighter Brian Downey  upon  the  occasion  of  his  designation  for
special  recognition  after 20 years of dedicated service as a member of
the Williston Park Fire Department,  to  be  celebrated  at  its  Annual
Inspection  Dinner on Saturday, April 29, 2023, at the Milleridge Inn in
Jericho, New York; and
 
  WHEREAS, Brian Downey started at the Williston Park Fire  Department
in  December  of  2002;  he served as 2nd Lieutenant of ERS from 2004 to
2005, as 1st Lieutenant of ERS from 2005 to 2006, and as the Captain  of
ERS from 2006 to 2007; 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;
Brian Downey is one such firefighter; throughout  20  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
commend Firefighter Brian Downey upon the occasion  of  his  designation
for  special  recognition  after  20  years  of dedicated service to the
Williston Park Fire Department; and be it further
 
  RESOLVED, That a copy of this  Resolution,  suitably  engrossed,  be
transmitted to Firefighter Brian Downey.
