Senate Resolution No. 1086

BY: Senator MARTINS

HONORING Ex-Captain Edmond Samson upon the
occasion of his designation for special recognition
after 50 years of dedicated service to the Garden
City 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, 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 Ex-Captain
Edmond Samson upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 50 years of dedicated service to the Garden City Park
Fire Department, to be celebrated at their 112th Annual Installation
Dinner in Woodbury, New York; 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;
Ex-Captain Edmond Samson is one such firefighter; throughout 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 Ex-Captain Edmond Samson upon the occasion of his designation for
special recognition after 50 years of dedicated service to the Garden
City Park Fire Department; and be it further

RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Ex-Captain Edmond Samson.
