BY: Senator GAUGHRAN

        HONORING  Firefighter  Joseph  Minicozzi, Jr. upon
        the  occasion  of  his   designation   for   special
        recognition  after  25 years of dedicated service to
        the Oyster Bay Fire Department No. 1

  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,  Volunteer  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
Joseph  Minicozzi, Jr.  upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 25 years of dedicated service to the Oyster  Bay  Fire
Department  No. 1, to be celebrated at its Annual Installation Dinner on
Saturday, March 14, 2020, at the  Crescent  Beach  Club,  Bayville,  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;
Joseph Minicozzi, Jr. is one such firefighter; throughout  25  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 Firefighter  Joseph  Minicozzi,  Jr.  upon  the  occasion  of  his
designation  for special recognition after 25 years of dedicated service
to the Oyster Bay Fire Department No. 1; and be it further

  RESOLVED, That a copy of this  Resolution,  suitably  engrossed,  be
transmitted to Firefighter Joseph Minicozzi, Jr.
