            HONORING THE DEDICATED SERVICE OF LIBBY JOHNSON

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. BART GORDON

                              of tennessee

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, February 28, 2006

  Mr. GORDON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Libby Johnson for her 
tremendous service to Tennessee's Sixth Congressional District while 
working in my Washington, D.C., office.
  After serving as my executive assistant, the Sumner County native is 
moving on to greener pastures. Her last day is today, and although my 
staff and I are sad to see Libby go, we are glad she has taken a job 
that will further her career and is worthy of her incredible abilities.
  Libby's conscientious work ethic and incomparable enthusiasm have 
served her well in the fast-paced world of Congress. Those same 
abilities also have gained her the respect of her colleagues. Now, she 
will share her tremendous abilities and experience with a new employer, 
who should be ecstatic over having found such a fine person.
  As busy as she has been, Libby always took time to say a kind word to 
those around her. It seems she has never met a stranger during her time 
on the Hill. With her vivacious personality and contagious smile, she 
certainly has made a lasting impression on virtually everyone she has 
met.
  Libby, you have endeared yourself to me and my staff. We will miss 
you and wish you well in your future endeavors.
