            WISHING MARTELL AND RHONDA MENLOVE ALL THE BEST

  (Mr. BISHOP of Utah asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. BISHOP of Utah. Mr. Speaker, Utah has some large educational 
shoes to fill.
  Martell Menlove, the State superintendent of public instruction in 
Utah, is ending a nearly four-decade career in public education. He has

served kids as a classroom teacher, a counselor, and an administrator 
in the Jordan, Tooele, and Rich districts, and he was my superintendent 
while I was teaching in the Box Elder district.
  Twice he was named Superintendent of the Year in Utah before he 
joined the State office in 2009.
  His wife, State Representative Rhonda Rudd Menlove, is also a career 
educator and is retiring after five terms in the Utah State 
legislature.
  Utah is losing a great team who inspired kids. They will be missed. 
We want to wish both Martell and Rhonda all the best in the new 
adventures they will be taking together.
  We thank you for what you have done for kids in Utah.
