Chief Jeff Tooker takes the floor to recognize Life Member Elwin Michel.
Jeff Reads the following:
Picture it - New York - May 20, 1964.
The World’s Fair has just kicked off in Flushing Meadows.
Buster Mathis defeated Joe Frazier that night to secure a spot on the US
Boxing team.
The Town of East Greenbush had just approved an actual police force

patrol car.

We were only just shy of six months since President Kennedy’s
Assassination.
The number one album in the land was "The Beatles Second Album."
The Vietnam War was quickly escalating overseas.
And here - well, up the street at the Main - four men joined the Fire
Company that day.
Thomas Hopkins.
John Leavett.
Departed Past Chief David Smith.
And a man who went on to be a Lieutenant in 1973, a Captain from 1974 to
1977, and - correct me if I’m wrong - but Car 3 for the majority if not all of
the years 1978 to 1989 and who has crossed the SIXTY YEAR THRESHOLD
of Active Membership as of yesterday’s date
Elwin Michel.
|
|
Jeff Called on several Past Chief’s to say a few words and the current Assistant Chief’s.
Pete Lehmann, Tim Boel, Rick Williams , Mike Benson , and Bob Lehmann all had nice comments for
Elwin.
Also included with comments Greg Forgea, Mike Benson Jr .Mike Lansing.
Thanks for 60 years of Active Service Elwin!
