and recognize certain milestones celebrated by citizens of this great
Empire State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its

is currently the last surviving World War II veteran of his local VFW
Post 5802; and

died while serving in the armed forces; and

enhanced the lives of his family and friends; and

 WHEREAS, This distinguished man has experienced the incredible joys

recognize those who have reached such a remarkable age and who have
witnessed and celebrated the innovations, cultural developments, and
magnificent achievements of this country during the last century, while
themselves contributing to the growth and excellence of this great
Empire State; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
congratulate John Neggia upon the occasion of celebrating his 100th
Birthday; and be it further
