                         HONORING JOSEPH WASSER

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. MAURICE D. HINCHEY

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Sunday, November 9, 1997

  Mr. HINCHEY. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take just a moment to 
congratulate Joe Wasser upon his retirement at the end of this year. 
Joe has served as Sheriff of Sullivan County up in my district for the 
past 20 years. But that alone far from captures the breadth and depth 
of his service to the public. Joe has served as a wonderful role model 
to us all by being not only a very fine public servant but also a plain 
old-fashioned good citizen. Joe's many achievements truly are too 
numerous to mention, but with this session of Congress winding to a 
close I just wanted to say congratulations to him and wish him many 
more years of happiness and good health.
