Senate Resolution No. 1605

BY: Senator MARTINS

 HONORING Philip Grella upon the occasion of his
 designation for special recognition after 65 years
 of dedicated service to the Sea Cliff Fire
 Department

 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; and

 WHEREAS, 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 Philip
Grella upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition
after 65 years of dedicated service to the Sea Cliff Fire Department to
be celebrated at the 142nd Installation of Officers on Friday, April 24,
2026, at the Crescent Beach Club in Bayville, New York; and

 WHEREAS, Philip Grella has consistently demonstrated a level of
commitment, dedication, integrity and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the fire service; and

 WHEREAS, Firefighters unwaveringly serve our great State with pride,
valor, and integrity; these respected heroes 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;
Philip Grella is such a firefighter; throughout 65 years of devoted
service, this firefighter 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 Philip Grella upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 65 years of dedicated service to the Sea Cliff Fire
Department; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Philip Grella.
