                     RETIREMENT OF WANDA BLACKWELL

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JAMES COMER

                              of kentucky

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, November 16, 2020

  Mr. COMER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Wanda 
Blackwell on her retirement from the Webster County Senior Center, 
where she has served as Director for the last four years. She is 
beloved by the seniors she cares for and their families because her 
devotion to serving others is evident in every effort she undertakes.
  Just a year ago, Webster County opened a new senior center that has 
already enriched the lives of so many and is evidence of the devotion 
Wanda and her team have for their fellow citizens.
  Whether she was serving or delivering meals, decorating and improving 
the center or raising funds to expand their offerings and programming, 
she did it all with a smile on her face. Wanda lives by the saying, 
``grow where God planted you'' and has been a shining example of giving 
back to the local community.
  I join with Wanda's family, friends, and all those she has served 
throughout her time with the center to thank her for her outstanding 
efforts to better the lives of others, and I wish her many happy years 
of retirement.
