Senate Resolution No. 855

BY: Senator MARTINS

 HONORING outgoing Captain Ethan Brower upon the
 occasion of his designation for special recognition
 after 14 years of dedicated service to the Atlantic
 Hook & Ladder Company 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 outgoing
Captain Ethan Brower upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 14 years of dedicated service to the Atlantic Hook &
Ladder Company No. 1 to be celebrated at its 139th Annual Installation
Dinner Dance on Friday, May 9, 2025, at The Royalton at Roslyn Country
Club in Roslyn Heights, 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, Ethan Brower has consistently demonstrated a level of
commitment, dedication, integrity and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the volunteer service; and

 WHEREAS, Ethan Brower was elected to membership in June of 2011, and
he has since dedicated over a decade of service to the Atlantic Hook &
Ladder Company No. 1; and

 WHEREAS, Throughout his 14 years of service, Ethan Brower has
contributed to the Atlantic Hook & Ladder Company No. 1 in various
leadership positions, including as both Second Lieutenant and First
Lieutenant before assuming the esteemed role of Captain; and

 WHEREAS, This year marks the end of Ethan Brower's term as Captain,
and the Atlantic Hook & Ladder Company No. 1 and the greater Port
Washington community has undoubtedly been improved by his honorable
leadership, commitment to excellence, and exceptional skills; 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;
Ethan Brower is such a firefighter; throughout 14 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 outgoing Captain Ethan Brower upon the occasion of his designation
for special recognition after 14 years of dedicated service to the
Atlantic Hook & Ladder Company No. 1; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to outgoing Captain Ethan Brower.
