         THANKING DOLLY SEELMEYER FOR HER SERVICE TO THE HOUSE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. ROBERT W. NEY

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 26, 2005

  Mr. NEY. Mr. Speaker, on the occasion of her retirement in December 
2004, we rise to thank Ms. Dolly Seelmeyer for over 32 years of 
outstanding service to the U.S. House of Representatives.
  Dolly began her career in government in 1972 in a ``temporary 6-week 
position'' in the Office of Photography. She followed that with being 
hired as the first female Photographer for the House of 
Representatives. Her passionate customer service, organizational 
knowledge and resourcefulness benefited six Speakers of the House, and 
more than 4,000 Members of Congress over three decades. Some say Dolly, 
herself, is an institution within the Office of Photography. Dolly has 
displayed great passion for her work and dedicated herself to ensuring 
the needs of her customers were met with great enthusiasm.
  On behalf of the entire House community, we extend congratulations to 
Dolly for her many years of dedication and outstanding contributions to 
the U.S. House of Representatives. We wish Dolly many wonderful years 
in fulfilling her retirement dreams.
