                          Tuesday, May 8, 2012

  Mr. ROSKAM. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise today to congratulate 
Deputy Police Chief for the Village of Bloomingdale, Randy Sater, on 
his exceptional career.
  Randy began his career of service and commitment to the Village of 
Bloomingdale in 1982. During his time of service, Randy has led in many 
different capacities. He served early on as a Detective and was later 
promoted to Sergeant. After nearly four years as Sergeant, Randy was 
assigned as Watch Commander. Most recently, he was promoted to Deputy 
Chief of Operations. Through his commitment to a wide array of 
leadership posts, Randy has demonstrated great integrity.
  From his start in the police force, Randy has been an active member 
of the community and has taken important leadership roles. Since 1994, 
Randy has served as Neighborhood Watch Coordinator. He has also worked 
with the youth in the community through the Character Counts Coalition. 
Since its inception in 1998, Randy has served on the Board of Directors 
of the Coalition and as Chair of the Coalition for a number of those 
years. The Character Counts Coalition works to uphold six pillars of 
character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, 
and citizenship. Without a doubt, Randy has carried out these six 
pillars of character in his own life. Valuing the safety and well-being 
of those in his community, he has also taken leadership as a 
B.A.S.S.E.T. (Beverage Alcohol Sellers and Servers Training) instructor 
since 2005. It is evident that Randy's involvements and reach has 
positively impacted the lives of many.
  Mr. Speaker and Distinguished Colleagues, please join me in 
recognizing Deputy Chief Randy Sater on his successful career.
