                         HONORING WENDELL WHITE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. HEATH SHULER

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, November 15, 2012

  Mr. SHULER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the members of my 
Congressional Staff who have served with me over the past six years 
while I have been in office. A Member of Congress' most important 
responsibility is to provide exceptional constituent services and my 
team is second to none in providing the best assistance to all in our 
District. My Washington, D.C. office is also tasked with researching, 
processing, analyzing, and making recommendations on an infinite number 
of reports, policies, and legislation. I could not ask for a more 
talented or dedicated team, and I take great pride in the work that 
each staff member has done not only on my behalf, but also on behalf of 
the 11th Congressional District of North Carolina and the United 
States.
  My team has shown a strong sense of dedication to meeting the needs 
of our constituency. I owe a debt of gratitude to each one of them for 
the support and friendship which they have shown me while I have served 
in Congress.
  Wendell White joined my Washington, D.C. office in November 2011. As 
the Coordinator of Special Projects, Wendell has performed with 
precision and care and sees every task through with a careful eye for 
detail. I have also entrusted Wendell with the management of one of my 
chief initiatives, our business outreach program. Wendell has 
demonstrated extraordinary resourcefulness and commitment to the 
outreach effort, which has yielded unparalleled results under his care. 
Moreover, Wendell has shown a great deal of dedication to understanding 
the intricacies of his legislative portfolio and has proven his ability 
to successfully multi-task high priority projects. Wendell is focused 
and employs a strong work ethic, often keeping long hours to ensure 
that his job is done to the very best of his ability.
  Wendell should be proud of the service he has provided to our 
District and country. It has been an honor to serve with him and as I 
retire from office I wish him the very best in the future. Western 
North Carolina is a better place because of his efforts and I will 
cherish the memories of serving with Wendell and the team by my side.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing and 
thanking Wendell White for his hard work on behalf of all of Western 
North Carolina and to wish him continued success in his future 
endeavors.
