designation for special recognition by the New York
State Office for the Aging on May 14, 2024

WHEREAS, Senior citizens bring a wealth of experience and knowledge
to the increasingly active roles they play in today's society; their
past contributions and future participation are a vital part of, and
valuable asset to, the fabric of community life and activity; and

WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to honor Chuck Miller
upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition by the New

WHEREAS, Each May, the New York State Office for the Aging pauses to
acknowledge the outstanding contributions made by older citizens during
National Older Americans Month; and

WHEREAS, Members of older generations have helped build and shape
our Nation to be the greatest in the world; they have defended our
freedoms and values to ensure that those who come after them may have
better lives; nowhere in the Nation is the legacy of their efforts more
visible and more a part of the lives of all citizens than here in the
State of New York; and

WHEREAS, Chuck Miller of Chenango County has continually shown
extreme competence, extraordinary intelligence, and diligent leadership
in his unwavering service to his community and, consequently, has been
selected for this most prestigious honor; and

WHEREAS, Chuck Miller has repeatedly demonstrated his commitment to
his community by serving at two meal service sites weekly; he goes above
and beyond the asking of a volunteer, checking in on clients that are no
longer receiving meals, ensuring their health and wellness; he also
gives of his time in supporting medical transportation services; and

WHEREAS, This honoree has also restored an old hay wagon on his
property to provide hayrides to friends, family, neighbors, and even
older adults from the senior center during the fall season; and

WHEREAS, Rare indeed is the impressive dedication shown by
individuals for the benefit of others which Chuck Miller has displayed
throughout his life; and

WHEREAS, Chuck Miller has enriched the lives of his family, friends,
and colleagues through his love and respect for others, and through the
wisdom which comes from many years of living life to the fullest; now,
therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to

recognition by the New York State Office for the Aging on May 14, 2024;
and be it further

RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
