Bill > S2064

This resolution, a formal expression from the Senate of the State of Rhode Island, conveys profound sorrow and sympathy on the death of George G. Cournoyer, a former resident of North Smithfield. The resolution acknowledges Mr. Cournoyer's life, including his birth in Woonsocket, his education at Mount St. Charles Academy and Bryant College, and his distinguished career in accounting and finance, noting his admired work ethic. It also highlights his significant contributions to public service, such as his tenure on the North Smithfield Planning Board and his innovative proposal to increase national savings and reduce the federal deficit, which garnered attention from President Reagan’s Economic Policy Advisory Board and Nobel Laureate Franco Modigliani. The resolution further recognizes his devotion to his family and his faith, and it directs the Secretary of State to send certified copies of this expression of condolence to his four children: Madonna, Gregory, James, and Jeffrey.
