Assembly Resolution No. 318

BY: M. of A. Simpson

 HONORING outgoing Chief Andrew P. Kelley upon the
 occasion of his designation for special recognition
 after 42 years of dedicated service to the Corinth
 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 outgoing
Chief Andrew P. Kelley upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 42 years of dedicated service to the Corinth Fire
Department; and

 WHEREAS, Andrew P. Kelley has consistently demonstrated a level of
commitment, dedication, integrity and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the volunteer service; and

 WHEREAS, Born and raised in Corinth, New York, Andrew P. Kelley
started at the old fire house on Mechanic Street in 1983; he diligently
and unwaveringly worked his way through the ranks, proving his
commitment to his community and fellow firefighters; and

 WHEREAS, Earning the esteem and admiration of his fellow first
responders, Andrew P. Kelley achieved the coveted rank of chief of the
department, a position he has held for an incredible 25 years; and

 WHEREAS, Andrew P. Kelley has watched the growth of the department
over decades; accomplishments held dear to him are the construction of
the fire house on Saratoga Avenue, as well as the building of seven new
fire apparatuses; and

 WHEREAS, With a history of devout community service, Andrew P.
Kelley retired as Sergeant from the Saratoga County Sheriff's Office
after 32 years of service; he served in numerous positions with the
office, gaining a valuable depth of experience over his tenure; and

 WHEREAS, This dedicated volunteer has served on the Corinth Board
for the past seven years, holding the admired position of president for
the most recent three years; and

 WHEREAS, With him throughout have been his wife, Diane; his
children, Marcus and Brittany; step-daughters, Samantha and Sarah; and
three grandchildren, Andrew, Wren, and Garbiella; all of whom have felt
privileged to be a part of his fruitful life and rejoices in his many
achievements; 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;
Andrew P. Kelley is such a firefighter; throughout 42 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 Chief Andrew P. Kelley upon the occasion of his
designation for special recognition after 42 years of dedicated service
to the Corinth Fire Department; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to outgoing Chief Andrew P. Kelley.
