   CELEBRATING THE CAREER OF DR. EDWARD J. LUKOMSKI AT PATHWAYS, INC.

                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. TOM REED

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 27, 2019

  Mr. REED. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the service of Dr. 
Edward J. Lukomski to Pathways, Inc. and congratulate him on his 
retirement.
  For the last sixteen years, Dr. Ed Lukomski has served as the 
President and Chief Executive Officer of Pathways, Inc. which provides 
services to two thousand people in fifteen counties. Pathways, Inc. is 
a not-for-profit human service organization offering in-home, 
community, and foster care services to youth with serious emotional 
disturbances, intellectual and developmental disabilities, and chronic 
medical conditions. Under Ed's leadership, Pathways has grown 
exponentially, not only in services and programs offered, but also 
geographically in their area of service coverage. Ed's dedication and 
hard work has ensured the expansion of opportunities for youths in need 
of aid, and for that we must commend him.
  To recognize his outstanding service, Pathways will be dedicating 
their Broad Street facility in Horseheads, New York, in his honor. The 
newly renamed ``Lukomski Center'' will stand as a fitting tribute to 
Ed's legacy as Pathways continues his work to expand services to youths 
in need.
  As Ed moves forward with the next chapter of his life, we applaud his 
tireless efforts to help youth in our communities and we wish him all 
the best in his retirement.
  Given the above, I ask that this Legislative Body pause in its 
deliberations and join me to celebrate Ed Lukomski and his 
extraordinary career.
