Assembly Resolution No. 1146

BY: M. of A. Bronson

 COMMEMORATING the 100th Anniversary of the West
 Henrietta Fire Department on February 13, 2026

 WHEREAS, Citizens across our State and Nation are inspired by and
indebted to our noble firefighters who exhibit courage and bravery every
day in the course of their duties; 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 commemorate the
Anniversary of the West Henrietta Fire Department and to honor its past
and present firefighting members for 100 years of fire protection for
the citizens of West Henrietta, New York; this auspicious occasion will
be officially celebrated on Saturday, April 11, 2026; and

 WHEREAS, Volunteer fire companies are an integral part of community
protection services in every locality of our State; during the past 100
years, the courageous and devoted firefighters of the West Henrietta
Fire Department have valiantly responded to all types of fire
emergencies and have won the praise and respect of the community which
they serve; and

 WHEREAS, The West Henrietta Fire Department was founded on February
13, 1926, and has served the Henrietta community as a private volunteer
fire company; for nearly a century, before consolidation, the Department
protected the community independently; in 1969, the Town of Henrietta
consolidated three volunteer companies, including West Henrietta, into
the Henrietta Fire District; and

 WHEREAS, The West Henrietta Fire Department's one hundred years
reflect an enduring tradition of neighbor-serving-neighbor volunteerism;
the Henrietta Fire District, of which West Henrietta remains a vital
part, annually responds to more than 7,200 calls across a 41-square-mile
response area with approximately 60 volunteer firefighters serving an
estimated 275,000 people each day; and

 WHEREAS, With its impressive force of caring firefighters, the
record of the West Henrietta Fire Department in public service and fire
protection is one to be applauded; for 24 hours a day, 365 days a year,
for 100 years, whenever the alarm sounded, these noble men and women
selflessly and tirelessly risked their lives to save the lives of others
and to protect homes and property from the destruction caused by fire
and hazards to life, health, and well-being; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body cannot express sufficient gratitude
to those individuals who recognize that the preservation of life and
property is a sacred responsibility and who make that responsibility
their own by serving as firefighters; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that we should
give special recognition to those who work so assiduously for the
betterment of their communities and publicly acknowledge the heroic good

works performed by the fire departments of this great Empire State,
their officers, and auxiliaries; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
proudly commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the West Henrietta Fire
Department; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to the members of the West Henrietta Fire Department.
