Assembly Resolution No. 257

BY: M. of A. Gray

 HONORING Bob Poor upon the occasion of his
 designation for special recognition after 70 years
 of dedicated service to the Rensselaer Falls Fire
 and Rescue Department

 WHEREAS, Citizens across our State and Nation are inspired by and
indebted to our noble 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 Bob Poor
upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition after 70
years of dedicated service to the Rensselaer Falls Fire and Rescue
Department, to be celebrated at the Rensselaer Falls Annual Banquet on
Saturday, March 29, 2025; and

 WHEREAS, Bob Poor has consistently demonstrated a level of
commitment, dedication, integrity and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the firefighting service; and

 WHEREAS, Throughout his 70 years as a firefighter, Bob Poor has
served as Foreman, Secretary, 2nd Assistant Chief, Assistant Chief and
Chief for the Rensselaer Falls Fire and Rescue Department; he also held
the title of Firefighter of the Year for the Saint Lawrence County Fire
Chiefs Association; and

 WHEREAS, Firefighters unwaveringly serve our great State with pride,
valor, and integrity; these respected heroes 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;
Bob Poor is such a firefighter; throughout 70 years of devoted service,
this firefighter 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 Bob Poor upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 70 years of dedicated service to the Rensselaer Falls
Fire and Rescue Department; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Bob Poor.
