HONORING Firefighter Willard H. Streiff Jr. upon
the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 55 years of dedicated service to
the Floyd Volunteer Fire Department
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 Firefighter
Willard H. Streiff Jr. upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 55 years of dedicated service to the Floyd Volunteer
Fire Department; and
WHEREAS, Willard H. Streiff Jr. has consistently demonstrated a
level of commitment, dedication, integrity, and professionalism which
truly exemplifies excellence in the firefighting service; and
WHEREAS, Firefighters unwaveringly serve our great State with pride,
valor, dedication and integrity; these respected men and women 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;
Willard Streiff Jr. is such a firefighter; throughout his 55 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 Firefighter Willard H. Streiff Jr. upon the occasion of his
designation for special recognition after 55 years of dedicated service
to the Floyd Volunteer Fire Department; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Firefighter Willard H. Streiff Jr.
