Senate Resolution No. 1942

BY: Senator GRIFFO

        HONORING  Dave  Ammann  upon  the  occasion of his
        designation for special recognition after  40  years
        of dedicated service to the Cazenovia Area Volunteer
        Ambulance Corps

  WHEREAS,  It  is  the  sense of this Legislative Body that those who
give outstanding service to the people of the  Empire  State  and  whose
extraordinary  achievements  save  the  lives  of  their fellow citizens
should be recognized because their efforts so profoundly strengthen  our
shared commitment to family and community life; and

  WHEREAS,  Attendant  to  such  concern  and  in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to honor
Dave Ammann upon the occasion of his designation for special recognition
after 40 years of dedicated service  to  the  Cazenovia  Area  Volunteer
Ambulance Corps, which was celebrated at its 50th Anniversary Banquet on
Saturday,  March  2, 2024, at the Hampton Inn & Suites in Cazenovia, New
York; and

  WHEREAS, The unity of  our  State  and  Nation  is  built  upon  the
compassion of those individuals within the State of New York who, in the
course of their jobs, perform acts of heroic dimension and who epitomize
the best of humanity; Dave Ammann is one such individual; and

  WHEREAS,  Volunteer ambulance corps members are an important part of
the safety net of America's healthcare system; they  provide  lifesaving
care to those in need, 24 hours a day, seven days a week; and

  WHEREAS,  Access to quality emergency care dramatically improves the
survival and recovery rate of those who  experience  sudden  illness  or
injury; and

  WHEREAS,  Established  in  1974  and  currently  based at 106 Nelson
Street, Cazenovia Area Volunteer Ambulance Corps has  been  serving  the
greater  Cazenovia  community seven days a week, 24 hours a day, and 365
days a year for five decades; and

  WHEREAS,  This  vital  ambulance  corps  would  not  exist   without
individuals such as Dave Ammann who sacrifice time spent with family and
friends  to put in countless hours to help a neighbor in need as well as
those passing through; and

  WHEREAS, Rare indeed  is  the  impressive  dedication  shown  by  an
individual  for  the  benefit  of others which Dave Ammann has displayed
throughout his life; and

  WHEREAS,  In  the  performance  of  his  duties,  Dave  Ammann   has
demonstrated his character and his compassion for the welfare of others;
he  is a tremendous asset to his EMS Unit and a distinguished citizen of
the State and Nation; and

  WHEREAS, Our unending  gratitude  and  respect  are  owed  to  these
devoted individuals whose responsibility is the preservation of life and

who  make that responsibility their own by serving their local ambulance
corps; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That  this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Dave Ammann upon the  occasion  of  his  designation  for  special
recognition  after  40  years of dedicated service to the Cazenovia Area
Volunteer Ambulance Corps; and be it further

  RESOLVED, That a copy of this  Resolution,  suitably  engrossed,  be
transmitted to Dave Ammann.
