“It is a tremendous honor for me to recognize Eileen Ucekay, a hardworking and outstanding constituent of the 22nd Congressional District in New York. She retired on May 9 of this year after working 45 years as the Village Clerk and Treasurer of West Winfield.
Eileen hails from the nearby City of Utica where she grew up with her two sisters and attended high school there before moving to West Winfield.
Eileen married her late husband Jack and had three wonderful children in our community, all while continuing to work for the village.
In addition to her many decades of public service, Eileen serves the West Winfield community through her church, the Greater West Winfield Historical Society, the Red Cross and the Red Hat Society.
She is truly a role model for all. Her remarkable life, her strong character, and deep dedication to public service has gained her the respect of everyone in our community. We are grateful for Eileen Ucekay’s service and her compassion for our community.
Thank you so much, I yield back.”
