PENN STATE POLICE OFFICER STEW NEFF MARKS 50 YEARS OF SERVICE
(Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I deeply admire the
service of policemen and -women who serve across Pennsylvania's Fifth
Congressional District; but, today, I rise to note Lieutenant Stew
Neff's service. He has been a member of the Penn State University
Police Department for the past five decades.
Lieutenant Neff was born and raised not too far from State College,
and he joined the Penn State Police Department as a dispatcher on
January 10, 1966. Since then, he has filled many roles, most recently
as a training officer, as a firearms instructor, and as a special
events coordinator for the past 13 years.
As a sign of his longevity with the department, consider that the
current assistant chief went to high school with Lieutenant Neff's
daughter. At a time when so many people switch jobs at the drop of a
hat, Stew's dedication to the Penn State Police Department and to the
university, itself, is highly commendable.
Lieutenant Neff isn't planning on retiring soon. He says that he
still loves his job and embraces the opportunity to serve his community
as a member of the Penn State Police Department. I wish Stew the best
of luck as his career continues.
