LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION commending Mauby Media Services upon the occasion
of hosting its Salute to Yesterday's Children Award Ceremony

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 commend
Mauby Media Services upon the occasion of hosting its Salute to Yester-
day's Children Award Ceremony held on Saturday, August 13, 2011, in
Brooklyn, New York; and
WHEREAS, This year's honorees, include Ms. Pearline Thomas-Sandy, Dr.
Lamuel Stanislaus, and Ms. Elmina Parris; and
WHEREAS, A Salute to Yesterday's Children is an exercise in love,
honor, obedience, gratitude and unity, and the idea was conceived by
Glenda Cadogan, a writer and communications specialist who is the Direc-
tor of Mauby Media Services; the idea was born out of a desire to cele-
brate community elders, many of whom sacrificed their own desires and
ambitions so that their children can become the high achievers of today;
and
WHEREAS, A Salute to Yesterday's Children is also a tribute to the
nurturing Glenda Cadogan received from her parents Irene and John Cado-
gan; in addition, it was inspired by the words of the calypso song
"Yesterday's Children" which was sung by calypsonian Winston "Gypsy"
Peters, the current Minister of Arts and Multiculturalism of Trinidad &
Tobago; and
WHEREAS, Mauby Media Services also supports Helena Charles Senior
Citizens Home in La Brea, Trinidad, the Hill's View Senior Home in
Gouyave, Grenada, and Uncle Eddy's Home for the Aged in Guyana; and
WHEREAS, It is incumbent upon the people of the State of New York to
recognize and acknowledge those organizations within our midst who have
made significant contributions to the quality of life therein; and
WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when individ-
uals and associations of such noble aims and accomplishments are brought
to our attention, they should be celebrated and recognized by all the
citizens of this great Empire State; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commend Mauby Media Services upon the occasion of hosting its Salute to
Yesterday's Children Award Ceremony; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Glenda Cadogan, Director, Mauby Media Services.
