person in the history of the Borough of Carteret to place the Wreath of 
Honor at the Carteret Soldiers and Sailors Memorial in Carteret Park.
  Joseph was recognized by the Carteret Veterans Alliance and the 
Senate and General Assembly of New Jersey as being a truly patriotic 
citizen and the youngest presenter of the Wreath of Honor at the 
Carteret Soldiers and Sailors Memorial. He was a special guest speaker 
in July of 2001 at the Rotary Club of Carteret, and was presented with 
an official Certificate of Appreciation. In addition, Joseph received a 
proclamation from Carteret Mayor Jim Failace, and was honored with a 
Joint Resolution from New Jersey State Senator Joseph Vitale, 
Assemblyman John Wisniewski, and Assemblywoman Arline Friscia.
  Joseph is presently enrolled at Holy Family School in Carteret, New 
Jersey. He enjoys playing Basketball and Little League Baseball.
  He is the son of Joseph and Bernadette Wutkowski.
  Today, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Joseph A. Wutkowski 
for his patriotism, and for honoring America's veterans in Carteret, 
New Jersey, and veterans all across America.
