                    IN HONOR OF MRS. EVELYN STEVENS

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. ROBERT B. ADERHOLT

                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, December 19, 2013

  Mr. ADERHOLT. Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege today to honor Mrs. 
Evelyn Stevens, a member of my staff for almost seventeen years. Evelyn 
is retiring this year after over 34 years of service to the U.S. House 
of Representatives.
  Evelyn began working for my predecessor, Congressman Tom Bevill, in 
1979 and has worked continuously since then with passion and dedication 
for the constituents of the current Fourth Congressional District of 
Alabama. It would be difficult to count the number of constituents that 
she has helped during her tenure with the Fourth District of Alabama.
  Evelyn was married for almost 40 years to Milton ``Bud'' Stevens and 
has two daughters, Renita Rigney and Amelia Sutter. She has five 
grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren with two more great-
grandchildren soon to be born. She enjoys traveling with her daughters 
and takes the time to visit a different baseball stadium in the country 
during a trip they take every year. Evelyn is also an avid bowler, 
bowling every Tuesday evening with her team.
  Few people can look back on their life and see that they have 
contributed so much to the well-being of their fellow citizens and 
their country. Evelyn Stevens is one of those people.
  On behalf of myself and all the people of Alabama's Fourth 
Congressional District, I can never thank her enough for her hard work 
and dedication to serving the people of Alabama and the United States 
of America.
  May God bless Evelyn in the years to come.
