LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION commending Firefighter Beltrany Setteducati upon
the occasion of his designation for special recognition after 65 years
of dedicated service to the Bellmore Fire Department

WHEREAS, The firefighters of New York State are renowned throughout the
Nation; their reputation is synonymous with excellence in the arduous
field of fire protection and prevention; and
WHEREAS, Since the early days of "teapot steamers," the volunteer
firefighter has been the cornerstone of our great Nation's efforts to
spare us from the ravages of fire; and
WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is proud to commend Firefighter Beltra-
ny Setteducati upon the occasion of his designation for special recogni-
tion after 65 years of dedicated service to the Bellmore Fire Depart-
ment, to be celebrated at its 118th Annual Inspection and Installation
Dinner on Saturday, February 14, 2015, at the Hyatt Regency Wind Watch
in Hauppauge, New York; and
WHEREAS, Volunteer firefighters and fire departments not only provide
the critical service of fire protection but also engage in other activ-
ities of great benefit and importance to the communities they serve; 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; Beltra-
ny Setteducati is such a firefighter; throughout 65 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 Beltrany Setteducati upon the occasion of his desig-
nation for special recognition after 65 years of dedicated service to
the Bellmore Fire Department; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Firefighter Beltrany Setteducati.
