LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION honoring Peggy Coryea upon the occasion of her
designation for special recognition by the Capital District Center for
Independence on June 3, 2009

WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize that the
quality and character of life in the communities across New York State
are reflective of the concerned and dedicated efforts of those organiza-
tions and individuals who would devote themselves to the welfare of the
community and its citizenry; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its long-
standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to honor
Peggy Coryea upon the occasion of her designation for special recogni-
tion by the Capital District Center for Independence at its 12th Annual
Celebration of Independence Awards Luncheon on June 3, 2009, at the
Albany Marriott in Colonie, New York; and
WHEREAS, A retired Regional Marketing Representative with VESID CDO,
Peggy Coryea began her career in vocational rehabilitation over 30 years
ago to allow her to work with people focusing on their strengths and all
the things that they can do instead of what they can't do; and
WHEREAS, Her work at VESID CDO allowed Peggy Coryea to be part of a
community addressing attitudes, awareness and the richness of diversity
in all aspects of life; the "We All Chase the Same Dreams" Disability
Awareness Month Team promoted not only inclusion at-large but practiced
what it preached by working together, sharing resources and taking their
work beyond its own mission; and
WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when individ-
uals and organizations of such noble aims and accomplishments are
brought to our attention, they should be celebrated and recognized by
all the citizens of the great State of New York; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Peggy Coryea upon the occasion of her designation for special
recognition by the Capital District Center for Independence on June 3,
2009; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Peggy Coryea.
