Senate Resolution No. 634

BY: Senator MARTINS

 HONORING Firefighter Joseph A. Goodrich upon the
 occasion of his designation for special recognition
 after 20 years of dedicated service to the Williston
 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, 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 A. Goodrich upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 20 years of dedicated service to the Williston Park
Fire Department to be celebrated at its Annual Dinner on Saturday, April
26, 2025, at the Milleridge Cottage in Jericho, New York; and

 WHEREAS, Since entering service on May 5, 2004, Joseph A. Goodrich
has consistently demonstrated a level of commitment, dedication,
integrity and professionalism which truly exemplifies excellence in the
volunteer service; and

 WHEREAS, Joseph A. Goodrich has served the Williston Park Fire
Department with distinction as a member of Engine Company 1; and

 WHEREAS, During his 20 years as a firefighter, Joseph A. Goodrich
has served as North Shore Holy Name Society Delegate: 2012-Present, 3rd
Vice President: 2023-2024, 2nd Vice President: 2024-2025, and 1st Vice
President: 2025; 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 A. Goodrich is such a firefighter; throughout 20 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 A. Goodrich upon the occasion of his
designation for special recognition after 20 years of dedicated service
to the Williston Park Fire Department; and be it further

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