Senate Resolution No. 2308

BY: Senator TEDISCO

 CONGRATULATING Deputy Chief Joseph Twitty upon the
 occasion of his retirement from the Niskayuna Police
 Department

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize and
honor those distinguished officers and citizens who devote themselves to
public service, demonstrating exceptional courage, integrity, and
diligence in safeguarding the welfare of the citizens of their
communities and this great Empire State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
congratulate Deputy Chief Joseph Twitty upon the occasion of his
retirement from the Niskayuna Police Department after 26 years of
dedicated service; and

 WHEREAS, Joseph Twitty began his distinguished law enforcement
career in 2000 after graduating from the Zone 5 Regional Law Enforcement
Training Academy, embarking upon a career marked by professionalism,
leadership, and an unwavering commitment to public safety; and

 WHEREAS, Throughout his tenure with the Niskayuna Police Department,
Joseph Twitty served with distinction as both a patrol officer and
sergeant before advancing to the Detective Division in 2015, where he
further served as Detective Sergeant for seven years; and

 WHEREAS, Although Deputy Chief Joseph Twitty concludes his career in
an administrative leadership role, some of his most cherished memories
stem from his years supervising the afternoon sergeant shift, which he
fondly described as fast-paced, unpredictable, and never boring; and

 WHEREAS, Over the course of a remarkable 26-year career filled with
accomplishments, commendations, and professional achievements, Deputy
Chief Joseph Twitty has exemplified the highest standards of law
enforcement service and leaves behind a lasting legacy of dedication,
integrity, and commitment to the residents of the Town of Niskayuna; and

 WHEREAS, As a mentor, role model, and steadfast presence within the
Niskayuna Police Department, Deputy Chief Joseph Twitty has earned the
respect and admiration of his colleagues, as well as the gratitude of
the community, through his compassionate service, tireless work ethic,
and steadfast leadership; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that those public
servants who unselfishly dedicate their lives to the preservation of
order, the protection of others, and the betterment of their communities
are worthy of the highest praise and recognition for their noble service
and enduring contributions; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Deputy Chief Joseph Twitty upon the occasion of his retirement
from the Niskayuna Police Department, and to extend to him its sincere

gratitude and best wishes for health, happiness, and success in all
future endeavors; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Deputy Chief Joseph Twitty.
