          IN RECOGNITION OF THE PUBLIC SERVICE OF JOHN NALLIN

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. SCOTT GARRETT

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 16, 2007

  Mr. GARRETT of New Jersey. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
the tremendous public service of John Nallin as he prepares his 
retirement after 20 years with UPS.
  During his proud career at UPS, he has served in a number of 
capacities, starting as a Systems Manager in Delivery Information 
Systems in 1987 and retiring now as Vice President and Information 
Services Corporate Repository & Architecture Portfolio Manager. 
Throughout his years with UPS, John Nallin has helped to make this 
company a high-tech leader, implementing cutting edge technologies and 
a progressive business strategy.
  Prior to coming to UPS, at a time when the field of information 
technology was still in its infancy, John helped to execute a similar 
technological vision at AT&T, Asbach Consulting, American Cyanamid, and 
Tenneco Chemicals. He truly is one of the pioneers that helped to 
propel some of America's leading companies into a brave new world of 
high-tech advances.
  John will surely be missed by his colleagues at UPS; but this 
corporate loss is without doubt the community's gain. John's public 
service dates back to his years as a United States Marine. And, he 
remains a community leader as a member of the Board of Directors of New 
Jersey Mental Health Association and the Board of Advisors for the 
American Cancer Society. His business acumen has been tapped for the 
Governor's Economic Growth Council and his generosity of heart has been 
enlisted as an active participant in a wide variety of United Way 
activities.
  John plays a strong role in helping prepare tomorrow's leaders as 
well as a member of the New Jersey Institute of Technology Board of 
Overseers and as a founding member of the Berkeley Heights Education 
Foundation. And, he serves on the Ramapo College Board of Governors; a 
board on which I also proudly sit.
  On the eve of his retirement from the corporate world, the community 
looks forward to continuing to work with John Nallin to make North 
Jersey an even better place in which to work, live, and raise a family.
