BY: M. of A. Angelino
HONORING Captain Gregory Franklin upon the
occasion of his designation as recipient of the
Pinnacle Public Service Award by the Norwich Fire
Department
WHEREAS, Citizens across our State and Nation are inspired by and
indebted to our noble firefighters who exhibit courage and bravery every
day in the course of their duties; and
WHEREAS, Firefighters exemplify the power of human compassion and
the strength of the American spirit through actions of the most heroic
magnitude; their sacrifices and their selfless dedication merit tribute
and recognition by all citizens of this great country; and
WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to honor Captain
Gregory Franklin upon the occasion of his designation as recipient of
the Pinnacle Public Service Award by the Norwich Fire Department, to be
celebrated on Saturday, April 29, 2023; and
WHEREAS, Captain Gregory Franklin has consistently demonstrated a
level of commitment, dedication, integrity, and professionalism which
truly exemplifies excellence in the fire service; and
WHEREAS, With a steadfast and unwavering commitment to the Norwich
Fire Department for nearly 34 years, Captain Gregory Franklin averaged
more than 3,700 hours of service to his department and the
community-at-large in 2002; and
WHEREAS, Firefighters unwaveringly serve our great State with pride,
valor, and integrity; these respected men and women are often the first
to respond to an emergency, whether the emergency is a fire,
transportation accident, natural disaster, act of terrorism, medical
crisis, or spill of hazardous materials; 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;
Captain Gregory Franklin is such a firefighter; throughout his years of
devoted service, he 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
honor Captain Gregory Franklin upon the occasion of his designation as
recipient of the Pinnacle Public Service Award by the Norwich Fire
Department; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
