                         TRIBUTE TO PAT WORLEY

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. CORY GARDNER

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, August 2, 2013

  Mr. GARDNER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the service of Pat 
Worley of Fort Lupton, Colorado and congratulate her on her retirement.
  Since 1992, Pat has served as Assignable Clerk for the Colorado State 
House of Representatives and has served as the Chief Assignable Clerk 
since 2000.
  Throughout her career, Pat has been dedicated to ensuring the 
successful functioning of the Colorado General Assembly. Her determined 
work ethic and passion for her job were critical to the successful 
operation of state government.
  I know many of my former colleagues in the legislature would agree 
that when Pat tells you to do something, you listen. And for all of us 
from ``the other Colorado,'' we appreciate her passion for all of 
Colorado.
  Not only is Pat an esteemed public servant, her service to Colorado 
extends well beyond her official job functions. While the Colorado 
House of Representatives convenes on the floor, Pat and her clerks 
devote their free-time to sewing lap robes for disabled veterans. Her 
generosity and commitment to helping those who served our country have 
had an immeasurable impact on our State.
  I congratulate her on her impressive career, and wish her all the 
best in the coming years of her well-deserved retirement. I join the 
people of Colorado in thanking her for her dedication, hard-work, 
compassion, and exemplary career in public service.
