  Mr. JORDAN. Madam Speaker, it is my honor to pay tribute to Union 
County Commissioners Charles Hall and Steve Stolte, who will retire at 
the end of 2020 after many years of outstanding service to the people 
of Union County.
  A lifelong resident of Leesburg Township, Charles Hall has been a 
county commissioner since 2005 and currently serves as Vice President 
of the Board. He studied business at Northern Illinois University and 
Butler University, later joining his brother in machinery sales in 
Marysville. Charles and his wife of more than fifty years, Peggy, are 
the parents of three, the grandparents of nine, and the great-
grandparents of two. They are members of Richwood United Methodist 
Church.

  Steve Stolte, President of the Board, was appointed to fill an 
unexpired term in 2011 and has served as a commissioner ever since. A 
graduate of The Ohio State University, Steve was Union County Engineer 
for nearly a quarter-century and Marysville City Engineer prior to 
that. He was named Ohio County Engineer of the Year in 1996 and 
received the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission's William H. 
Anderson Excellence in Public Service Award in 2019.
  Madam Speaker, the people of Union County will gather for an open 
house on December 17 to celebrate Charles's and Steve's retirement. On 
behalf of the people of Ohio's Fourth Congressional District, I am 
proud to join in the accolades to them for their devotion to public 
service. We wish them and their families every success as they move to 
a new chapter in their lives.
