                      Thursday, November 18, 2021

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize a notable 
resident within my district, Thomas J. Gari. Mr. Gari obtained a 
bachelor's degree in Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering from my alma 
mater, the Pennsylvania State University in 1970, and later went on to 
achieve a master's degree in Business Administration from Villanova 
University in 1986. Following his education, Tom left his private 
sector career to join the Internal Revenue Service in 1999. In every 
stage of his career, Tom always worked to support and empower others, 
leveraging his extensive experience to identify complex case issues. 
find viable solutions, and produce consistent, quality results. In his 
final years at the IRS, Tom served as Engineering Team Manager, in 
which he managed all operational aspects executed by his team. Now, 
after more than twenty-two impressive years of dedicated government 
service and professional leadership, Tom is entering retirement. I am 
proud to recognize Thomas J. Gari as an exceptional man of character, 
guided by a sense to better his community and country. He has 
demonstrated an extraordinary ability to overcome complex challenges 
throughout the years as well as a steadfast dedication to supporting 
his colleagues. We are incredibly grateful for the positive impact that 
Tom has had on our community, and we wish him well in his retirement.
