                HONORING WANDA B. RYAN ON HER RETIREMENT

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. ROBERT E. ANDREWS

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 2, 2005

  Mr. ANDREWS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Wanda B. Ryan for her 
41 years of outstanding service to the youth of Camden, New Jersey. She 
has shown tremendous dedication to our community, serving and living in 
Camden throughout her entire career.
  Ms. Ryan has an amazing track record at the Washington School: she 
has not missed a day of school in her entire 41 year career! Since 
September of 1964, she has been there every day for her elementary 
school students, who have certainly benefited from Ms. Ryan's lessons, 
and have gone on to live more enlightened, fruitful lives. Her efforts 
have certainly benefited not only the students, but all those involved 
in the Washington School and its community.
  Mr. Speaker, I celebrate the outstanding career of Wanda Ryan. She 
has certainly accomplished much throughout her time at the Washington 
School, and I applaud her steadfast commitment to her community and 
students. I wish her all the best in her retirement.

                          ____________________
