    HONORING CHIEF WILLIAM HART OF THE LONDONDERRY POLICE DEPARTMENT

                    in the house of representatives

  Mr. PAPPAS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Chief William Hart 
of the Londonderry

[[Page E824]]

Police Department. He is retiring after three decades of service to the 
community to become a United States Marshal for New Hampshire. Chief 
Hart served in the U.S. Marine Corps before joining the Londonderry 
community in 1992. Throughout his distinguished career, Chief Hart has 
served as Londonderry's prosecutor, Rockingham County's attorney, a 
Captain with the Londonderry Police Department, acting town manager, 
and most recently as the Chief of Police since 2009.
  Chief Hart has dedicated his life to his community and guided the 
Londonderry Police Department through tremendous growth. He led the 
department through a new station and building transition, and grew the 
department to 68 sworn police officers. Bill exemplifies the 
department's way of building trust: to treat people with kindness, 
dignity, and respect, no matter what.
  As Chief of Police Bill has continuously shown dedication to 
bettering the community and the Granite State. He has always gone above 
and beyond to ensure the safety of the people in Londonderry, and all 
Granite Staters. I have no doubt that his commitment and leadership 
will continue as he joins the oldest law enforcement agency.
  On behalf of my constituents in New Hampshire's First Congressional 
District, I want to congratulate Chief Hart on his accomplished law 
enforcement career. I thank him and his family for their decades of 
dedication to our community and wish him all the best as he embarks on 
his new journey as a U.S. Marshal.
