  HONORING THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF McMULLEN COUNTY TAX COLLECTOR ANGELA 
                                BOSWICK

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. HENRY CUELLAR

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 13, 2005

  Mr. CUELLAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the McMullen 
County Tax Collector Angela Boswick for her dedicated public service.
  Angela Boswick is a proud native of southwest Texas. She was born in 
Menard, Texas, where she attended Menard High School.
  She began her professional life in the banking industry. During that 
period, she acquired the expertise and competence in finance that have 
stood her in such good stead during her work for the county.
  Ms. Boswick has lived in McMullen County for the past 25 years. She 
entered public service in the tax office 15 years ago. Her hard work 
and competence have been repeatedly recognized by the county, and she 
has repeatedly been promoted, eventually rising to her current position 
as County Tax Collector.
  Angela Boswick has been married for 10 years, and has further 
contributed to her community by raising two wonderful girls. She is the 
kind of public servant who holds our towns and cities together: 
hardworking, accountable, persistent and dedicated. Too often, the 
public servants who hold vital but low-profile positions such as tax 
collector do not get the recognition they deserve. For that reason, I 
am especially happy to have had the chance to thank Angela Boswick here 
today.
