LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION commending outgoing Fire Chief Christopher A.
Budney upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition
after his dedicated service to the Shawangunk Valley Fire Company

WHEREAS, The firefighters of New York State are renowned throughout the
Nation; their reputation is synonymous with excellence in the arduous
field of fire protection and prevention; and
WHEREAS, Since the early days of "teapot steamers," the volunteer
firefighter has been the cornerstone of our great Nation's efforts to
spare us from the ravages of fire; and
WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is proud to commend outgoing Fire Chief
Christopher A. Budney upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition after his dedicated service to the Shawangunk Valley Fire
Company, celebrated at its Annual Installation Dinner on Saturday, Janu-
ary 29, 2011, at the Magnanini Winery in Wallkill, New York; and
WHEREAS, Volunteer firefighters and fire departments not only provide
the critical service of fire protection but also engage in other activ-
ities of great benefit and importance to the communities they serve; and
WHEREAS, A true asset to society, Christopher A. Budney's distin-
guished record merits the recognition and respectful tribute of this
Legislative Body; 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; Chris-
topher A. Budney 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
commend Fire Chief Christopher A. Budney upon the occasion of his desig-
nation for special recognition after many years of dedicated service to
the Shawangunk Valley Fire Company; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Fire Chief Christopher A. Budney.
