BY: Senator MARTINS

        HONORING  Chief John J. Janus upon the occasion of
        his designation  for  special  recognition  for  his
        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  Chief  John
J.    Janus upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition
for his  service  to  the  Garden  City  Park  Fire  Department,  to  be
celebrated  at  their  112th Annual Installation Dinner in Woodbury, New
York; and

  WHEREAS, Dedicated firefighter, John J. Janus has been  named  Chief
of the Garden City Park Fire Department for the 2023 year, deserving the
utmost  praise  and thanks for his unrelenting commitment to serving his
community; 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;
Chief John J. Janus 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 Chief John J. Janus upon  the  occasion  of  his  designation  for
special  recognition  after his 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 Chief John J. Janus.
