  Mr. GORDON. Mr. Speaker, I want to give thanks and offer special 
recognition to an intern in my office, Gary David Dedman.
  David attends my alma mater Middle Tennessee State University. He 
interned the entire fall semester in my office, working 35 hours a 
week.
  Interns play an invaluable role in helping congressional offices 
function efficiently and effectively, often performing the most 
thankless but essential tasks required. David pitches in wherever and 
whenever he is needed, never complaining and always accomplishing his 
work on time and of the highest quality.
  David loves interacting with our constituents. He truly goes above 
and beyond what is expected of him to ensure the satisfaction of our 
constituents. This high regard for the people of Middle Tennessee is 
reflected each and every day in his attitude and dependability.
  David is a fine young man and has been an invaluable member of my 
staff. He deserves the highest praise for his dedication to a job well 
done.
  It has been a pleasure to have Gary David Dedman serve in my office, 
and I join my staff in thanking him for all his hard work and 
invaluable contribution in serving the people of Middle Tennessee.
