    CONGRATULATING THERESA SUTTON AS ILLINOIS POSTMASTER OF THE YEAR

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN SHIMKUS

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, June 18, 1999

  Mr. SHIMKUS. Mr. Speaker, I take this time to congratulate Theresa 
Sutton from Brighton, Illinois for the National Association of 
Postmasters of the United States naming her Postmaster of the Year for 
the state of Illinois.
  The small community postmaster responded to the award, ``I have some 
dedicated employees that really work hard. That makes my job a lot 
easier.'' Theresa Sutton will meet in Washington, D.C. along with award 
recipients from other states in order to meet with Representatives and 
Senators about postal issues.
  I commend her dedication and service to the United States Postal 
Service. With the necessity for efficient postal services, I am 
comforted that the 20th District has quality postmasters like Theresa 
Sutton.
