At a time when there has been so much scrutiny about the volunteer fire departments throughout Long Island I believe the residents of Syosset should take a close look at who we empower to manage our own Syosset Volunteer Fire Department.

I have had the pleasure of working with and getting to know Dennis Hendrickson. A family man, an active man in his community who currently serves us, the citizens of Nassau County as an emergency ambulance paramedic, dispatched out of our own 2nd Precinct in Woodbury.

More importantly, Dennis has served the Syosset Fire Department for over 18 years both as a Member of the Technical Rescue Team and Chief of the Department from 1994-1999.

I am proud to call Dennis Hendrickson my friend and urge all of my fellow residents within the Syosset Fire District to re-elect Dennis as a Commissioner of the Syosset Volunteer Fire Department. Please join me on Tuesday, December 13 and support Dennis with your vote. Thank you.
