WHEREAS, Life Scout Robert DiCiaula of Boy Scout Troop 969, Pathway to Adventure Council, Indian Trails District, has passed his Eagle Scout Board of Review earning him the rank of Eagle Scout, scouting's highest achievement; and
WHEREAS, The City Council has been informed of this special occasion by The Honorable Margaret Laurino, Alderman of the 39th Ward; and
WHEREAS, Robert's Eagle Scout Service Project was the construction of an outdoor patio garden for Misericordia Heart of Mercy in Chicago, Illinois; and

WHEREAS, Many Eagle Scouts have become great leaders in diverse endeavors such as Astronaut Neil Armstrong, former United States President Gerald R. Ford, former United States Senator William Bradley, former major league baseball player Albert Belle and Chief Executive Officer of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Bill Gates, Sr.; and,
WHEREAS, Robert completed all the requirements and has been examined by an Eagle Scout Board of Review, certifying his worthiness for Scouting's highest distinction. He represents the highest values of youth in our great City of Chicago in whom its leaders place so much hope and trust; now, therefore,
Be It Resolved, That we, the Mayor and members of the City Council of the City of Chicago, gathered here this thirteenth day of April, 2016, do hereby extend our heartiest congratulations to Robert DiCiaula on attaining the rank of Eagle Scout and wish him every success in any and all of his future endeavors; and
