I stand today to proudly pay tribute to my Chief of Staff, Nancee Ann Blockinger. Nancee has stood with me for my entire career in the United States Congress. For 22 years she has served me, the people of Utah, and the people of this country with unsurpassed dedication. Her hard work and loyalty has earned her the reputation among staff and Members as a consummate professional. I have never had to worry about how my office was being run or our compliance with House rules. I knew Nancee was on top of it. Her intelligence, hard work, and caring attitude has made a difference in more ways than I could ever imagine. My staff and I extend our sincere gratitude and appreciation to Nancee, and recognize all that she has unselfishly given of herself over the past 22 years. Her career on Capitol Hill has indeed touched many lives, and her service will be remembered with fondness. I am honored to pay tribute to Nancee today in front of this distinguished body of Congress. She is my Chief of Staff, my friend, and I wish her only the very best in her retirement.
