IN HONOR OF JANE CALVO
(Mr. MEADOWS asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. MEADOWS. Madam Speaker, today, I rise to honor one of my
constituents from Henderson County, Jane Calvo, on her retirement after
nearly 26 years in a career with the Federal service.
Mrs. Calvo spent the early part of her career in the Foreign Service
with the State Department. For nearly 4 years, she served in the U.S.
Embassy in Costa Rica. After some time away, she served as an
exceptional district caseworker for one of my predecessors, former
Representative Charles Taylor, for the entire eight terms of his
service in Congress. Most recently, since 2007, Mrs. Calvo has worked
at the Social Security Administration in western North Carolina.
Mrs. Calvo first moved to Henderson County 35 years ago, and her
exemplary record of service to our Nation in her various roles merits
the highest commendation, and I am proud to have her as a constituent.
Madam Speaker, today, I wish Mrs. Calvo all the best in her
retirement, where she will have more time to spend with her husband of
40 years, Alfredo, and her two adult sons, Al and Michael. On behalf of
the 11th District, I thank Mrs. Calvo for her distinguished career of
service to this great country.
