HONORING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF LINDA GREENBLATT
(Mr. MOLINARO asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
[[Page H1455]]
Mr. MOLINARO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the life
and legacy of Mrs. Linda Greenblatt, a beloved social studies teacher
who passed away on March 18 after decades of service to the Red Hook
Central School District.
As a former student of Mrs. Greenblatt, I can attest to the profound
impact she had in the classroom. She had a passion for teaching, and
her lessons made students excited about history and government.
What I admire most about her is that she saw the potential in every
student. She was the type of teacher who would allow students to do a
project if they weren't able to take the test. This individualized
approach helped students like me to realize their strengths and achieve
their goals.
I thank her, as do so many, for being one of the people who got me
interested in public service and helped me recognize at a very young
age that every person has significant strengths and abilities.
I ask my colleagues in the House to join me in honoring the memory of
Mrs. Linda Greenblatt. May her legacy continue to inspire future
generations of educators and students alike.
