The Senate Resolution SR 1127 congratulates Frank J. Karpinski on his retirement after thirty-one years of service to the State of Rhode Island, particularly in the Office of the General Treasurer and the Employees Retirement System of Rhode Island (ERSRI). Frank began his career in 1994 and has served under six different Rhode Island General Treasurers. He played a significant role in modernizing the state's retirement system and managing it through periods of financial instability and reform. His leadership has contributed to a more responsibly funded and managed ERSRI.

The resolution acknowledges Frank's contributions to public service, his respected position within the National Association of State Retirement Administrators, and his personable nature, which has made him a valued figure in the Treasurer's Office. As he retires, the Senate recognizes his impact on the retirement security of Rhode Island's public servants and expresses gratitude for his service. The resolution concludes with a directive to transmit a certified copy to Frank Karpinski.
