                RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF MARTHA INGLE

                                 ______

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, December 13, 2012

  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ms. 
Martha Ingle upon her retirement after 36 years of faithful and 
dedicated service to the citizens of Walton County, Florida.
   Ms. Ingle began her career in public service with the Walton County 
Clerk of Court, where she served for a combined 21 years as Deputy 
Clerk and later Chief Deputy Clerk. After leaving the Clerk's office, 
Martha continued her career as a dedicated public servant, working for 
four years as Budget Officer for the Walton County Board of 
Commissioners. Ultimately, Ms. Ingle was elected to serve as Walton 
County Clerk of Court. As Clerk of Court, she served in myriad roles, 
including Chief Financial Officer for the Court, Ex-Officio Clerk of 
the Board of County Commissioners, Accountant and Auditor, Recorder, 
and Custodian of county funds.
   A shining example of commitment to public service, Ms. Ingle 
received numerous accolades during her tenure, including ten 
consecutive annual Certificates of Achievement for Excellence in 
Financial Reporting; and during fiscal year 2011, under her leadership, 
Ms. Ingle's office was the only Clerk's office in the state to meet 
every performance measure set by the Clerk of Court Operations 
Corporation.
   Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, it is my 
privilege to recognize Ms. Martha Ingle for her dedication and thank 
her for her service to Northwest Florida. My wife Vicki and I wish Ms. 
Ingle, her daughters Donna and Melissa, and grandchildren Luke, Laura, 
Graham and Emma, all the best.
