Senate Resolution No. 1808

BY: Senator STEC

 HONORING Brian Pelkey upon the occasion of his
 designation for special recognition after 35 years
 of dedicated service to Rouses Point 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 selfless dedication
merit tribute and recognition by all citizens of this great country; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to honor Brian
Pelkey, upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition
after 35 years of dedicated service to Rouses Point Fire Department, to
be recognized at its Annual Awards Banquet at the American Legion Post
912 in Rouses Point, New York, on Saturday, May 9, 2026; and

 WHEREAS, Brian Pelkey has been in the fire service and a member of
Rouses Point Fire Department for 35 years; he has served the Department
in numerous offices, specifically as Fire Chief, and various positions
in the Company; and

 WHEREAS, Serving as a chairperson of numerous committees, Brian
Pelkey's dedication has been shown in his many acts of unselfish deeds,
not only to the Department but also to the residents of Rouses Point and
neighboring communities; and

 WHEREAS, Brian Pelkey has consistently demonstrated a level of
commitment, dedication, integrity, and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the volunteer service; he has been a role
model to members throughout his entire career since joining Rouses Point
Fire Department; 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;
Brian Pelkey is such a firefighter; throughout his 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 Brian Pelkey upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 35 years of dedicated service to Rouses Point Fire
Department; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Brian Pelkey.
