       RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF DEPUTY WARDEN ROBERT F. BOLOGNA

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. LEE M. ZELDIN

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 15, 2020

  Mr. ZELDIN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the service of 
Deputy Warden of the Suffolk County Sheriff's Office's Corrections 
Division, Robert F. Bologna, as he culminates 28 years serving our 
community with the Suffolk County Sheriff's Office.
  Beginning his civil service career with the Sheriff's Office in 
January of 1992 as a Correction Officer, Officer Bologna went above and 
beyond the call of duty, quickly rising through the ranks thanks to his 
unparalleled skill set and leadership.
  Promoted to Deputy Warden in 2016, he commanded correctional 
facilities in Yaphank and Riverhead, responsible for several hundred 
law enforcement officers, the safety of thousands of individuals in the 
custody of the Sheriff and the safety and security of communities 
across Long Island.
  From his time as a United States Navy Operations Specialist in the 
Persian Gulf to his time serving in the Suffolk County Sheriff's 
Office, Deputy Warden has never hesitated to put the safety of his 
fellow Long Islanders above his own.
  On behalf of our entire community and nation, I thank Deputy Warden 
Bologna for his service and wish him the best in his well-earned 
retirement.
