                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JIM GERLACH

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, October 17, 2003

  Mr. GERLACH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Edwin R. Hill for 
his 30 years of service as manager for East Caln Township in Chester 
County, Pennsylvania.
  Edwin R. Hill has served as one of only two full-time employees for 
East Caln Township for over three decades, where he took on many duties 
under his title of Township Manager. With his retirement, Mr. Hill 
leaves behind a legacy any public official would be proud of, and East 
Caln Township will be hard-pressed to replace such a fine individual.
  In addition to his position as Township Manager, Edwin R. Hill was a 
past President of the Pennsylvania State Association of Township 
Supervisors, a role and an honor in our state that truly illustrates 
his tremendous leadership abilities. Mr. Hill made it a point over the 
years to pass his tremendous knowledge and experience on to others. He 
was a part-time instructor for the Governor's Center Municipal Training 
Classes where he taught such courses as Road Masters Class, Commercial 
Drivers License Training and orientation courses for newly-elected 
officials. Mr. Hill also served on the Chester County Planning 
Commission, as well as various other local committees to resolve issues 
in municipal government.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues join me today in recognizing and 
honoring Edwin R. Hill for the hard work and dedication he has 
demonstrated over the years in making East Caln Township, Chester 
County and all of Pennsylvania a better place to live.
