                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, August 2, 2007

  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, on the occasion of his 
retirement in July, 2007, I rise to thank William ``David'' Crudup III 
for his 36 years of outstanding service to the U. S. House of 
Representatives.
  David began working for the House in 1971 in the Longworth Bake Shop 
where he served many of our Nation's leaders and foreign visitors. One 
of his most memorable events was when he had the opportunity to bake a 
birthday cake for then-First Lady Betty Ford. Upon leaving the 
Longworth Bake Shop, David worked the next 20 years for the Clerk of 
the House in the Office Furnishings division. He served as a Logistics 
and Distribution Specialist performing a wide range of duties including 
furniture delivery to Congressional offices, warehouse inventory 
management and assisting with the proper disposal of excess furniture.
  In September 1991, David took a position with Office Systems 
Management, also under the Clerk. He was responsible for a wide range 
of duties including the delivery and removal of office equipment from 
Congressional offices, as well as performing and reconciling equipment 
inventories and assisting with the proper disposal of excess equipment.
  Throughout his career, David has been admired by House staff and his 
co-workers for his enthusiasm, professionalism and willingness to help 
others. He frequently went above and beyond the call of duty. His 
dedication and hard work should be commended. On behalf of the entire 
House community, we extend

congratulations to David for his years of outstanding service and 
contributions to the U.S. House of Representatives. We wish him many 
wonderful years in fulfilling his retirement dreams.
