   CONGRATULATING MS. SUSAN LEWIS ON 45 YEARS OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICE

  (Mr. BOOZMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BOOZMAN. I rise today to honor Ms. Susan Lewis, who spent her 
life in the classroom devoting her time to educating our youth. Ms. 
Lewis is retiring from 45 years of teaching. More than 30 of those 
years were spent at Coleman Junior High in Van Buren, Arkansas, 
teaching algebra.
  Coleman Junior High will undoubtedly be losing an amazing individual 
who contributed to the lives of two generations of Arkansans. Her time 
in the classroom provided her students the necessary tools for building 
a brighter future.
  Ms. Lewis exemplifies the idea that with good teachers there is 
improved student achievement. Her hard work and dedication made her a 
model for success for students and her coworkers. We are blessed to 
have had such a caring teacher as Ms. Lewis. I commend

her for her service as well as her good work and wish her continued 
success in future endeavors.
  I ask my colleagues today to join with me in honoring Ms. Lewis, a 
wonderful teacher who has always and will be dedicated to the students 
of the Third District of Arkansas.
