A RESOLUTION
Honoring Russell Taylor as a French Knight of the Legion of Honor.

       WHEREAS,  The members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate Russell Taylor on receiving the Knight of the Legion of Honor Medal from the French government; and

       WHEREAS,  Established by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802, the Knight of the Legion of Honor Medal is bestowed upon those who achieve remarkable deeds for France, and this prestigious honor is a fitting tribute to Russell Taylor for his contributions to the liberation of that nation from German occupation during World War II. A remarkable individual, he combined courage and dedication with tremendous strength and resolve throughout his loyal service as a member of the U.S. Army; and

       WHEREAS,  The heroic traditions of our country's armed forces are an important part of our American heritage. Russell Taylor demonstrated an unwavering commitment to performing his duties and fulfilling his responsibilities with the utmost efficiency and competence, and he certainly distinguished himself as a patriotic and hard-working American; and

       WHEREAS,  Giving freely of his time, energy, and abilities far beyond what was required or expected, Russell Taylor earned the respect and admiration of all those with whom he served and the gratitude of many. As he reflects on his military tenure, he has the satisfaction of knowing that he provided a valuable service to our country and its allies and established a record of accomplishment worthy of emulation; therefore be it

       RESOLVED,  That we, the members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, commend Russell Taylor on this special accolade and salute him as one of Ohio's finest citizens; and be it further

       RESOLVED,  That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to Russell Taylor.

I, Vincent L. Keeran, hereby certify that the above is a true and correct copy of Senate Resolution No. 17, adopted by the Ohio Senate, January 27, 2013.
