                        TRIBUTE TO FRANK FRAZIER

 Mr. TILLIS. Madam President, I rise today to pay tribute to 
Mr. Frank Frazier of Oxford, NC, for his 35 years of dedicated public 
service to the city of Henderson and surrounding communities. Mr. 
Frazier was hired as an engineering technician for the city of 
Henderson in 1985 and has since dedicated his career to public service. 
He has held a number of roles within local government including, but 
not limited to, director of engineering, assistant city manager and 
city manager.
  As city manager, Mr. Frazier has managed over 200 employees 
responsible for all city operations including the Fire and Police 
Departments, engineering, human resources, finance, recreation, and 
water resources, among many others. Mr. Frazier has led several 
significant projects that have benefited the city, county, and region 
as a whole, including upgrades to the Henderson Water Reclamation 
Facility and an upgrade to the Kerr Lake Regional Water Plant. Not only 
did Mr. Frazier successfully execute many accomplishments for the 
community, he did so through balanced budgets without tax increases and 
simultaneously providing substantial pay raises to city employees.
  Mr. Frazier is well respected and acknowledged for his consistent 
dedication to improving the quality of life for Henderson and the 
greater region. I would like to thank Mr. Frazier for his 35 years of 
honorable service, as well as acknowledge his wife Sherrie and their 
two sons, Mitchell and Chad, who have supported his service. I wish Mr. 
Frazier all the best in his future endeavors as he retires from the 
city of Henderson.
