                    CONGRATULATING RICHARD N. REILLY

  (Mr. RUTHERFORD asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. RUTHERFORD. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Richard 
N. Reilly on a well-deserved retirement after many years of service to 
the United States of America.
  Richard has been a U.S. State Department Pearson Fellow in my 
Washington, D.C., office over this past year and has provided 
invaluable guidance and assistance to both my staff and my 
constituents.
  A native of Minnesota, Rich began his service to our Nation as an 
Army infantryman and then he continued on later with a 20-year career 
as a naval officer. Following his time in the military, Rich joined the 
State Department as a Foreign Service officer advocating for America's 
interests abroad.
  On behalf of the Fourth District of Florida and a grateful Nation, I 
offer my heartfelt thanks to Rich for his many contributions to our 
country and wish him a relaxing and fulfilling retirement enjoyed with 
wife, Susan; his children; and their new granddaughter, Peyton.
  Congratulations, Rich.
