Senate Resolution No. 1898

BY: Senator MARTINS

 HONORING Ex-Chief Edward McEvoy, Jr., upon the
 occasion of his designation for special recognition
 after 35 years of dedicated service to Oyster Bay
 Fire Company No. 1

 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 selfless dedication
merit tribute and recognition by all citizens of this great country; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to honor Ex-Chief
Edward McEvoy, Jr., upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after 35 years of dedicated service to Oyster Bay Fire
Company No. 1, to be recognized at its Installation Dinner at the Fox
Hollow Inn in Woodbury, New York, on Friday, May 8, 2026; and

 WHEREAS, Edward McEvoy, Jr., has consistently demonstrated a level
of commitment, dedication, integrity, and professionalism which truly
exemplifies excellence in the volunteer service; he has been a role
model to members throughout his entire career since joining Oyster Bay
Fire Company No. 1; 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;
Edward McEvoy, Jr., is such a firefighter; throughout his 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 Ex-Chief Edward McEvoy, Jr., upon the occasion of his designation
for special recognition after 35 years of dedicated service to Oyster
Bay Fire Company No. 1; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Ex-Chief Edward McEvoy, Jr.
