                     TRIBUTE TO DEB WHEATLEY FIELD

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, April 5, 2017

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Deb Wheatley Field of Atlantic, Iowa, for her recent 
retirement after 35 years of dedicated service to the City of Atlantic 
as the City Clerk.
  Over her 35 years as City Clerk, Deb was able to calculate that she 
attended around 950 City Council meetings. Her expertise has been an 
invaluable tool for the city throughout her career. Not only is Deb an 
expert on all things Atlantic, but she has also exhibited ethical 
standards and professionalism second to none. As Atlantic moves forward 
after Deb's retirement, Deb's legacy will, with no doubt, continue to 
have a lasting impact on the way the city is run for years to come.
  Mr. Speaker, Deb has made a difference in her community by helping 
and serving others. It is with great pride that I recognize her today. 
I ask that all of my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Deb on her accomplishments 
and in wishing her nothing but continued success in her retirement.
