                        Friday, December 2, 2022

  Mr. HUDSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Moore County 
Register of Deeds Judy Martin for 33 years of service to Moore County. 
As the longest-serving county officeholder, Registrar Martin has 
dedicated her career to her position.
  Registrar Martin first began working with the Moore County Register 
of Deeds in 1989. She served as assistant for the Register of Deeds for 
ten years prior to being appointed Register of Deeds in 2001. She was 
then elected to the office in 2002 and has held the position ever 
since. Registrar Martin's leadership helped the office successfully 
digitize its system of records to accommodate modernization and improve 
its function. Additionally, she has brought noteworthy state 
recognition to Moore County. In 2010, the state association of 
registrars awarded her the Shining Star Award in recognition of her 
excellent track record and service to her county and state. She was 
later recognized as Outstanding Register of Deeds by the North Carolina 
Association of County Commissioners. In the same year, she served as 
president of the North Carolina Register of Deeds and was presented the 
Eunice Ayers Distinguished Service Award for exceptional service in the 
position.
  Registrar Martin will retire from her position at the end of the 
year. Through her outstanding service and leadership, she has helped 
strengthen Moore County's capability to adequately serve its citizens. 
She will long serve as an exemplary figure in public service, and I 
know I speak for the rest of our community in wishing her well as she 
begins the next chapter of her career,
  Madam Speaker, please join me today in honoring Register of Deeds 
Judy Martin for her career of exemplary servitude to her community.
