                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. TOM LATHAM

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 23, 2010

  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize the retirement of Mary 
Gilley, the longtime clerk of the Greene County district court, and to 
express my appreciation for her dedication and commitment to her 
community in Iowa.
  For the past 26 years, Mary has worked with the clerk of court's 
office, providing dependable service to the community. Since 1985 she 
has been the clerk of the district court. Before her time with Greene 
County, Mary worked at a law firm in Fort Dodge, Iowa and was employed 
as a legal secretary in a private practice.
  Mary Gilley has left a permanent mark on Greene County and will be 
truly missed at the district court, although she plans to continue 
serving the community through volunteer work. I know that my colleagues 
in the United States Congress join me in commending Mary for her 
outstanding service to her community and congratulating her on her 
retirement. I consider it an honor to represent Mary in Congress, and I 
wish her a long, happy and healthy future.
