                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 29, 2018

  Mr. NORCROSS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy 
of the late Sandra Love, a constituent of New Jersey's First 
Congressional District and distinguished public servant.
  Mrs. Love served as a New Jersey General Assemblywoman, representing 
the State's Fourth Legislative District. Prior to ``Sandi's'' tenure in 
the Legislature, she was the long time mayor of Gloucester Township, 
New Jersey, serving three terms from 1994 to 2006.
  Among Mrs. Love's Mayoral accomplishments: the establishment of an 
Economic Development Advisory Committee, forming the Gloucester 
Township Human Relations Committee, creating a welfare-to-work program, 
developing the Gloucester Township Ministerial, and assisting in an 
effort that raised a substantial amount of relief funds for the victims 
of Hurricane Katrina.
  In addition, Sandi Love was a board member for the Council on 
Affordable Housing, served on the Gloucester Township Housing 
Authority, was a member of the Gloucester Township Scholarship 
Committee, and was a trustee for Camden County Health Services.
  Despite her many public constituents and busy schedule, Sandi Love 
actively volunteered in the community she loved, contributing her time 
to the Special Olympics and serving as a trustee for the Mainstage 
Center for the Performing Arts.
  For her dedicated civic engagement and commitment to help others in 
her advocacy, Mrs. Love was honored with the Women Who Make a 
Difference Award, a Blackwood Rotary Club Paul Harris fellowship, the 
Camden County Martin Luther King, Jr. award, and a YWCA Award.
  Mrs. Love was the wife of Al, mother to Jason (Sara) and Jeffrey 
(Jen), and grandmother to Cordelia, Sophia, Ian, and August. She will 
be deeply missed by her family, friends, neighbors, community members, 
and colleagues in public service.
  Mr. Speaker, Sandi Love was an exceptional community leader. Mrs. 
Love's service, sacrifice, and compassion will forever endure in South 
Jersey. I ask you to join me in honoring the memory of The Honorable 
Sandra Love.
