Commending Frederick J. Stark, Jr. posthumously upon the occasion of his designation as recipient of a Liberty Medal, the highest honor bestowed upon an individual by the New York State Senate
Senate Resolution J 1286 posthumously commends Frederick J. Stark, Jr. for being designated as the recipient of the New York State Senate's Liberty Medal - the Senate's highest honor for an individual. The resolution recognizes his World War II military service in the Pacific Theater (as an Electrician's Mate 2nd Class), his 30+ year career as a structural engineer with the New York State Department of Transportation, and his community involvement as a veteran and active member of Columbia County's Honor a Veteran Committee. It formally honors his contributions and directs the Senate to transmit a copy of the resolution to his family. This is a symbolic resolution with no policy changes or direct impacts beyond commemoration.
