                       HONORING MRS. JANE JESSEN

  (Mr. FLOOD asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. FLOOD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor one of Nebraska's 
finest elementary educators, Mrs. Jane Jessen of Norfolk, Nebraska. 
Mrs. Jessen has taught at Sacred Heart Elementary School and Norfolk 
Catholic School since 1984.
  Every single day in the classroom, she worked hard to inspire each 
student to find their own path and to celebrate what makes them a very 
important person.
  Jane has lived her life to help others. She has touched the lives of 
so many not only in the classroom, but she has also touched the lives 
of those who have witnessed her resilience by living her faith during 
times of tragedy and sorrow.
  Norfolk Catholic School won the lottery of teachers when Mrs. Jane 
Jessen went to work for the students.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of everybody in the First Congressional 
District, I thank my fifth grade teacher, Sacred Heart School, and 
Norfolk Catholic, Jane Jessen, for everything she has done for our 
State and our Nation.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish Mrs. Jessen a happy retirement.
