Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

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.
