                 IN RECOGNITION OF MRS. MARY P. DENIHAN

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 13, 2012

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Mrs. Mary 
P. Denihan, who is retiring after a long career of dedicated public 
service to the residents of Northeast Ohio.
  Mary Denihan is currently the Senior Administrative Officer for the 
Cuyahoga Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA). She has previously held a 
number of roles assisting the public. Early in her career, she worked 
as the assault prevention coordinator with the Lake County Sexual 
Assault Center. She later joined Mothers Against Drunk Driving where 
she served as their state administrator.
  Mrs. Denihan initially joined the Cuyahoga Support Enforcement Agency 
on January 28, 1991 as a support officer in the Establishment Unit. She 
was instrumental in the success of the Teen Paternity Project. She 
worked as a public information officer and senior public information 
officer before becoming a senior administrative officer. Throughout her 
tenure with CSEA, Mrs. Denihan has been an invaluable resource to my 
office in assisting our efforts to fulfill the needs of the residents 
of my district. Her dedication and intellect will be missed throughout 
the entire community.
  Following her retirement, Mary plans on spending more time with her 
family. She has been married to her husband, Bill, who currently serves 
as the Chief Executive Officer for the Alcohol, Drug Addiction, and 
Mental Health Services Board of Cuyahoga County for 23 years. She is 
the proud parent of 4 children, 7 step children and 34 grandchildren.
  Mr. Speaker and colleagues, please join me in recognizing the storied 
career of Mrs. Mary P. Denihan and congratulating her on her 
retirement.
