I'd like to make an announcement, direct the attention of the STATE OF ILLINOIS 88TH GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 46th Legislatlve Day May 5, 1993 Members of the Bady to a young man and his family seated ln the gallery today. Today we're joined by a real hero, a hero that comes from the district that represent, the City of Northlake. His name is Nick Sabatino. He's here with his parents and family and friends. I'd like to just briefly tell the Members of the Body why this young man is such a hero. He was in a very tragic car accident traveling down the road with a companion. They swerved off of the road to avoid an obstacle. The vehicle Went into -- into some water, and at the same time lt exploded, which is kind of peculiar, but he -- he risked his llfe and he Went down on numerous occaslons to rescue his friend and companion who Was strapped into the vehicle, and as a result he suffered very , very serious burns. Nick Sabatino is a real: true-life hero, and I wanted to 1et the Members of the Body know, and I Would really ask you to give Nick and his family a big Warm welcome.
Will the Senate please recognize Nick Sabatino and his family. A1l right. Now, for a purpose of introduction, Senator Hasara.
Thank you, Mr. President. It's my pleasure today to introduce some friends of mine whom I've worked with on adoption issues over the last feW years. They represent a group called One-church/one-child, which promotes, within black churches in the State of Illinois, the idea of a member of the congregation adopting one of the children on the waiting list waiting to be adopted through DCFS. So I'd like to note that the Director, Mac Ryder is here today; and at this time I would turn the Podium over to William -- to Reverend William Rucker, who is President of the Board of One-church/one-child. Reverend Rucker is the Pastor of the Soul Reviving Missionary Baptist Church from Chicago, and they are here today to make an award: the Senator Richard Newhouse Legislative Annual Award. So with thaty I'd like to introduce 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 88TH GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 46th Legislative Day May 5, 1993 Reverend Rucker.
(Presentation of awards by the Reverend William Rucker)
May I just say to the officers of the One-child/one-church family that this award that is presented to me this morning out of the mintage of my heart, I thank you and certainly wish you Godspeed.
