                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 7, 2016

  Mr. WENSTRUP. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Clermont 
County Sheriff A.J. ``Tim'' Rodenberg on a distinguished career serving 
the residents of Clermont County and southern Ohio.
  With over 25 years of law enforcement experience, including 
leadership as the sheriff and assistant prosecuting attorney, Tim's 
involvement and acumen has been invaluable in helping make Clermont 
County a safe place to live and work.
  A great American committed to service, Tim served on active duty as 
an officer with the U.S. Marines, during which he was appointed to the 
Commanding General's Honor List for outstanding academic and leadership 
performance.
  Originally elected sheriff in 1997, Tim has effectively guided the 
Clermont County Sheriff's office into the 21st Century. He has been 
involved in everything from the Senior Visitation Program, a program 
that pairs deputies with senior citizens in the community, to the 
Summer Junior Police Academy, an introduction into police and emergency 
service work for middle and high school students. Tim has worked 
tirelessly to improve Clermont County over the years, devoted to the 
big picture and listening to the people he serves without expectation.
  Tim also serves as a state certified police and corrections academy 
instructor and has taught criminal justice and legal courses at four 
Greater Cincinnati colleges and universities.
  As he prepares to retire, I commend him for his hard work and 
leadership to make southern Ohio a better place. Our community is lucky 
to have someone so committed to service.
  Thank you Tim, and God bless you.
