  Mr. GOODEN of Texas. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the 
leadership and commitment of Dr. Coy Holcombe, who serves the fifth 
district of Texas as Superintendent of Eustace ISD. An essential figure 
and true asset to our community, Dr. Holcombe is retiring after 21 
years of service.
  Dr. Holcombe began his career as an educator and coach in 1984 before 
joining Eustace ISD in 2001. His brilliance for finance and his 
leadership skills have not gone unnoticed in the community, especially 
during the trials of COVID-19. Dr. Holcombe has successfully maintained 
a healthy fund balance within the school district and navigated the 
community through student population growth over the years. His 
leadership during the pandemic was stellar in ensuring students' 
education, health, and well-being was properly monitored and 
prioritized. His dedication to every student within Eustace ISD will 
leave a legacy of excellence and compassion in the fifth district of 
Texas.
  I commend Dr. Coy Holcombe for his commitment to the students and 
families of Eustace ISD and for 21 years of hard work and service as 
Superintendent.
