                    IN RECOGNITION OF DONALD HUSSEY

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. WILLIAM R. KEATING

                            of massachusetts

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 19, 2013

  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Lieutenant Donald 
Hussey upon his retirement from the Rockland Fire Department.
   Lieutenant Hussey has given four decades of dedicated service to the 
people of Rockland, and I know I speak for many when I say that his 
many accomplishments have been invaluable to the town. The Department 
recognized his skill early on when they appointed Lieutenant Hussey to 
the position of Permanent Firefighter just one year after he first 
entered the Rockland Fire Call Department. Lieutenant Hussey was again 
promoted to Permanent Lieutenant in October 1995, the same month in 
which he was bestowed with a Medal of Valor for saving an elderly 
person from a burning home. He officially retired from the Rockland 
Fire Department this past January, and I know that his service will be 
sorely missed in his community.
   Mr. Speaker, I am proud to honor Lieutenant Donald Hussey upon his 
retirement from the Rockland Fire Department after forty years of 
invaluable service. I ask that my colleagues join me in congratulating 
him on this important occasion and in thanking him for all that he has 
done for the Town of Rockland.
