                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 13, 2023

  Ms. STEFANIK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Broadalbin Town 
Justice William Jennings for his 50 years of valiant service to his 
local community.
  A lifelong resident of the Town of Broadalbin, Justice Jennings has 
been dedicated to serving his community in many capacities throughout 
his storied career. After graduating from Broadalbin High School in 
1965, he began work at the John Hancock Life Insurance Company before 
answering the call to serve and joining the Army Reserves in 1968. Four 
years later, Justice Jennings returned to Broadalbin High School where 
he diligently served as the school's bus driver and groundskeeper for 
the next 46 years before retiring in 2018 and going to work part-time 
as a bus driver for Gloversville Transit.
  Justice Jennings was elected to the office of Broadalbin Town Justice 
in 1973 and has been a staple of the community, adjudicating the town's 
issues for more than a half-century. Known for both his wisdom and 
compassion, few individuals are held in such high regard in the Town of 
Broadalbin. Justice Jennings should be extremely proud of his 
illustrious career and the positive impact he has made along the way.
  Above all, Justice Jenning is a family man who enjoys spending 
quality time with his loved ones. Married to Candyce O. Weiss in 1968, 
the pair have three sons; James, Jeffrey, and Jonathan; seven 
grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. On a clear summer's day, 
Justice Jennings and his family can often be found driving up Broad 
Street in an automobile from his beloved classic car collection.
  On behalf of New York's 21st Congressional District, I am honored to 
recognize Town Justice William Jennings for his exceptional leadership 
and his enduring contributions to his community.
