                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BRIAN HIGGINS

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 14, 2010

  Mr. HIGGINS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the years 
of service given to the people of Chautauqua County by Mr. Carl 
Vilardo. Mr. Vilardo served his constituency faithfully and justly 
during his tenure as a member of the Westfield Town Council.
  Public service is a difficult and fulfilling career. Any person with 
a dream may enter but only a few are able to reach the end. Mr. Vilardo 
served his term with his head held high and a smile on his face the 
entire way. I have no doubt that his kind demeanor left a lasting 
impression on the people of Chautauqua County.
  We are truly blessed to have such strong individuals with a desire to 
make this county the wonderful place that we all know it can be. Mr. 
Vilardo is one of those people and that is why, Madam Speaker, I rise 
in tribute to him today.
