Gov. Christie Recognizes Chip Paillex as an “Everyday Hero”
TRENTON — In the middle of his inaugural speech, Gov. Chris Christie singled out a few New Jersey residents he called heroes. The governor called out the honored residents one at a time and asked them to stand up for recognition. The citizens were chosen to attend the ceremonies because of their community service, Christie said.Tony Kurdzuk/The Star-LedgerNewly sworn in Gov.
