standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to commem-
orate the 80th Anniversary of Sall-Stearns, Inc., which was celebrated
on Thursday, September 24, 2009; and
WHEREAS, Sall-Stearns, Inc., a fine men's clothing store originally
located on Washington Street in downtown Binghamton, was the combined
vision of Maurice Sall and his business partner, Al Stearns, 80 years
ago in September of 1929; and

employee in 1936; in 1973, Nate, along with his son Ron, took over the

WHEREAS, After eight decades, Sall-Stearns, Inc., now located at 52
Court Street, Binghamton, New York, continues to sell and tailor men's
clothing; in recent years, it branched out into dress casual clothing
lines as work attire evolved; and
WHEREAS, Ron Sall has been called upon to contribute his time and
talents, and has always given of himself unstintingly; he has volun-
teered, and continues to volunteer, in various ways to help small busi-
nesses develop and grow, particularly within the downtown Binghamton

edges this exceptional business and its contributions to the local and
