                HONORING THE RETIREMENT OF EARL GRIGSBY

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. BARBARA COMSTOCK

                              of virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, April 11, 2016

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I would like to use this time to 
acknowledge one of my constituents who has demonstrated for nearly a 
half-century what it means to serve their neighbor. Earl Grigsby will 
be retiring on April 1st as Superintendent of Public Works for Loudoun 
County after 44 years of dedication to the community.
  Mr. Grigsby began his public service 44 years ago as a laborer at the 
county's landfill. Over the years, his hard work and positive outlook 
led him on a path to retiring as Superintendent of public works. His 
time with the county has been marked by efficiently leading his 
workforce, as well as guiding the county operations in emergency 
situations. Mr. Grigsby leaves office not only receiving honors from 
the Board of Supervisors, but also a standing ovation from colleagues 
and kin alike.
  Mr. Speaker, having already been honored by family and coworkers, I 
ask that my colleagues join me in recognizing Mr. Grigsby's public 
work, and implore each of us to imitate his dedication to duty. I wish 
Mr. Grigsby the best in his future endeavors.

                          ____________________
