SENATOR HANNON INVITES NOMINEES FOR “VETERANS HALL OF FAME” HONOR

“The New York State Senate Veterans’ Hall of Fame was created to honor and recognize outstanding veterans from our state who have distinguished themselves both in military and civilian life,” said Senator Kemp Hannon (R-Nassau). “Their service to our nation deserves our gratitude and admiration.”

Senator Hannon is inviting Sixth Senate District residents to nominate a veteran (or veterans) from their community whose service on behalf of our nation designates them for induction into the New York State Veterans Hall of Fame.  The Hall of Fame is designed to pay tribute to New Yorkers whose gallantry in the U.S. Armed Forces is complemented by their service to the community.

“The winner from my district will be honored at a special ceremony in the State Capital in Albany on Tuesday, May 15th, where each honoree’s photograph and biography will become part of a special on-line exhibit proclaiming the contributions of these exemplary New York Veterans,” said Hannon.

Those wishing to nominate a veteran for this special honor should contact Senator Hannon’s Community Office (516-739-1700 or hannon@nysenate.gov) for information.  The deadline for submission is April 5.
