                       TRIBUTE TO SUSANNA EUSTON

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. HEATH SHULER

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, November 15, 2012

  Mr. SHULER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the members of my 
Congressional Staff who have served with me over the past six years 
while I have been in office. A Member of Congress' most important 
responsibility is to provide exceptional constituent services and my 
Staff is second to none in providing the best assistance to everyone in 
our District. I take great pride in the work that each one has done on 
my behalf and on behalf of everyone in the 11th Congressional District 
of North Carolina.
  Each District Staff member has shown a strong sense of dedication in 
meeting the needs of each and every one of our constituents. They often 
go well beyond the call to make sure each constituent is treated fairly 
and respectfully by our government agencies and that they receive 
appropriate resolution. I owe a debt of gratitude to each one of them 
for the support and friendship which they have shown me while I have 
served in Congress.
  Susanna Euston was an original member of my District staff and worked 
tirelessly to serve the veteran community. Susanna developed immediate 
relationships with individual veterans and leaders of veteran 
organizations and quickly became the go-to person in Western North 
Carolina when any of our veterans needed assistance. I could always 
count on Susanna to make sure each one of our veteran constituents was 
treated fairly and with the utmost respect. Susanna was a devoted 
member of the team, often arriving first in the morning and staying as 
one of the last ones out the door at the end of the day.
  Susanna should be proud of the service she provided to our District 
and country. It has been an honor to serve with her and as I retire 
from office I wish her the very best in the future. Western North 
Carolina is a better place because of her efforts and I will cherish 
the memories of serving with Susanna and the team by my side.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing and 
thanking Susanna Euston for her hard work on behalf of all of Western 
North Carolina and to wish her continued success in her future 
endeavors.
