TRIBUTE TO NAN SHERIDAN-MANN
Mr. VAN HOLLEN. Mr. President, I rise to honor a member of my staff
Nan Sheridan-Mann on the occasion of her retirement. Nan is retiring
after over 5 and a half years as my western Maryland regional director
and will be sorely missed.
Coming to my team from the Frederick County Chamber of Commerce, Nan
has been instrumental in engaging with small businesses, nonprofit
organizations, community leaders, and constituents alike throughout
western Maryland. The daughter of a World War II veteran, she has been
a champion for the veterans' community, serving as the cochair for
Serving Together's Western Region Veteran Collaborative, an executive
member of the Frederick County Community Veterans Engagement Board, and
a member of the Veterans Advisory Council of Frederick County. Nan is
tireless and always willing to lend a hand; Nan has not only been a
community outreach resource but has worked to tackle individual cases
for constituents across the State. Indeed, during the height of the
COVID-19 pandemic, she helped to resolve over 1000 unemployment
insurance cases and bring families security and peace of mind.
A Midwesterner by birth, we are grateful to call Nan Sheridan-Mann a
Marylander and emeritus member of Team Van Hollen. We have treasured
her good humor, abundant generosity, authenticity, and buoyant spirit.
I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking Nan for her outstanding
service to Maryland and the U.S. Senate and wish her the best for a
well-deserved and fulfilling retirement.
