                   HONORING MAYOR WILLIAM E. TROXELL

  (Mr. PERRY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, today I honor William E. Troxell on his May 
31, 2016, retirement as mayor of the borough of Gettysburg.
  Mr. Troxell was born in Gettysburg and is a direct descendant of John 
Troxell, the first settler of Gettysburg. Mr. Troxell is a World War II 
veteran and served 12 years in the United States Army Reserve.
  William is best known, however, as Mayor Troxell of Gettysburg, a 
position he has held since 1997 and performed with zeal, 
professionalism, and class. William has left an enduring legacy of 
service to Gettysburg and our Nation.
  On behalf of Pennsylvania's Fourth Congressional District and a 
grateful nation, I am proud and humbled to congratulate William E. 
Troxell on his retirement and wish him great health, happiness, and 
prosperity in his future adventures.
