                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 13, 2005

  Mr. NEY. Mr. Speaker, on the occasion of his retirement in March 
2005, we rise to thank Mr. Wayne Myers for 31 years of outstanding 
service to the United States government, with the majority of it here 
in the U.S. House of Representatives.
  Wayne began his government career in 1967 as a soldier in the U.S. 
Army where he was trained as a combat radio repairman and served a tour 
of duty in South Vietnam. Upon being honorably discharged in 1970, he 
continued his education in the electronics field. After 4 years, Wayne 
became a technician at the National Air and Space Museum and later 
transferred to the National Gallery of Art. In 1979 he joined the 
engineering staff of the House Recording Studio as it began the 
historic television coverage of House floor proceedings. For the past 
25 years Wayne Myers has led by his quiet dependable example. He has 
been a selfless team player. His faith has given him the inner peace to 
work through the most tenuous times without complaint while still 
maintaining a great sense of humor.
  On behalf of the entire House community, we extend congratulations to 
Wayne for his many years of dedication and outstanding contributions to 
the U.S. House of Representatives. We wish him many wonderful years in 
fulfilling his retirement dreams.
