  Mr. CUELLAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the public 
service of Hulda Kercheville of Hernandez Intermediate School.
  Hulda Kercheville grew up in Martindale, Texas. As the eldest of six 
children, she spent much of her youth helping her parents care for her 
of siblings.
  Mrs. Kercheville has chosen to lead a life filled with good examples 
for our children. She is no stranger to hard work, having served as 
both an educator and a former Hays County Constable.
  Hulda Kercheville has taught our kids for the last thirty-five years. 
She is retiring from Hernandez Intermediate School, and receiving the 
honorary distinction of Teacher of the Year.
  Hulda Kercheville survives her husband Jack Kercheville. Her four 
children: Michael, Cheryl, Mary, and Jaclyn, now have children and 
grandchildren of their own.

generations of Texans.
