 RETIREMENT OF DOMINIC ROMEO FROM NEW JERSEY FRATERNAL ORDER OF POLICE

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. FRANK A. LoBIONDO

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 18, 2012

  Mr. LoBIONDO. Mr. Speaker, I extend my deepest appreciation to 
Dominic Romeo for the more than 50 years of service to the state of New 
Jersey as a law enforcement officer and advocate for the Fraternal 
Order of Police. The true embodiment of a public servant, Dom began his 
career in 1959 as a seasonal police officer in his hometown of Wildwood 
and rose through the ranks, including two stints as President of the 
Cape May County FOP Lodge 7. His leadership and commitment to the oath 
`to serve and protect' are a model for current and aspiring officers. 
His advice and insight have helped me on Congressional issues related 
to law enforcement. On behalf of South Jersey residents and all those 
kept safe by his selfless actions, I wish Dom Romeo a very relaxing, 
rewarding retirement and thank him both for his steadfast friendship 
and service to South Jersey.
