 IN RECOGNITION OF MRS. PENNY LUKENBILL'S SERVICE TO MARSHALL COUNTY, 
                                INDIANA

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JACKIE WALORSKI

                               of indiana

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 2, 2014

  Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize Mrs. Penny 
Lukenbill, for her service and dedication to Marshall County and the 
State of Indiana for the past 15 years.
  A resident of Plymouth, Indiana, Penny and her husband Kenneth have 
been married for 39 years. In 1981 they welcomed their son Adam who is 
now an attorney and partner in his father's law firm Lukenbill and 
Lukenbill. Eager to continue her own education, Mrs. Lukenbill received 
her bachelor's degree in psychology from Indiana University South Bend 
in 1995, where she graduated cum laude.
  Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Lukenbill has displayed a constant commitment to 
serving Hoosiers of Marshall County. In 1999 she was elected to serve 
as the county treasurer, and held that position until 2007, when she 
was elected as the Marshall County Auditor. In addition to her duties 
as auditor, she served as president of both the Association of Indiana 
Counties and the Indiana County Treasurers Association. Mrs. 
Lukenbill's dedication to her community is evident from her past 
membership on the Plymouth Public Library Board of Trustees, Plymouth 
Park Board, and the Plymouth Industrial Development Corporation Board. 
During Mrs. Lukenbill's distinguished career in public service, she has 
received multiple awards and recognitions. In 2012, she received 
Outstanding County Auditor from the Indiana Association of County 
Commissioners and in 2004, she was awarded the Plymouth Chamber of 
Commerce Public Servant of the Year.
  These awards are just a small reminder of how much Mrs. Lukenbill's 
service has meant to the citizens of Marshall County. Her exemplary 
dedication to the community is seen in her service as an elder at the 
First Presbyterian Church of Plymouth and in leading past Lions Sight 
mission trips to Mexico.
  On behalf of Indiana's Second Congressional District, I am honored to 
recognize Penny Lukenbill's service and her unprecedented community 
involvement throughout Marshall County.
