Commerce

WHEREAS, Individuals who give of their time and energies and serve the

but also of his competence, intelligence and leadership and consequently
has been designated for special honor; and

son upon the occasion of his designation as the 2010 Citizen of the Year
by the Akron Chamber of Commerce, to be celebrated on Saturday, May 1,
2010; and
WHEREAS, Each year this award is bestowed upon an individual who has
displayed an unselfish devotion to improving the quality of life in the
Akron community; and
WHEREAS, A groundsman at Akron Central School, Jim Richardson's dedi-
cation for his community is well-known; he totally supports Akron sports
and its athletes by making sure the fields are well-maintained in order
to compete at the desired level; and
WHEREAS, Throughout the entire period of his community service, a
period of constructive involvement, Jim Richardson has stood constant in
dignity, good grace and humor; and
WHEREAS, Rare indeed is the impressive dedication shown by an individ-
ual for the benefit of others which Jim Richardson has displayed
throughout his life; and
WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when individ-
uals of such noble aims and accomplishments are brought to our atten-
tion, 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
