   HONORING THE SERVICE OF NORWICH NEW YORK FIREFIGHTER ZACHARY MINER

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. MARCUS J. MOLINARO

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 17, 2023

  Mr. MOLINARO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the career of 
Norwich firefighter Zachary Miner, who recently retired from the 
Norwich Fire Department after 20 years of dedicated service. Throughout 
his career, Zach has demonstrated a strong commitment to public service 
by ensuring the safety of his community.
  Zach joined the Norwich Fire Department in December of 2002 and 
received his EMT certification two years later. Since his 
certification, he has treated thousands of patients and become a role 
model and teacher for others in his department.
  In 2014, Zach was honored with the Firefighter of the Year Award and 
American Red Cross ``Real Hero's Award'' after heroically rescuing an 
adult trapped in a garage fire. His contributions and service to the 
Norwich community will not be forgotten.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues in the House join me in 
recognizing the career of Norwich Firefighter Zachary Miner, a 
hardworking and dedicated public servant with an unwavering commitment 
to keeping Upstate New Yorkers safe.
