                       HONORING PATRICIA THOMPSON

                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. ANDY KIM

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, November 12, 2021

  Mr. KIM of New Jersey. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Patricia 
Thompson and wish her well in her retirement after 43 years of 
dedicated service to the township of Willingboro, New Jersey.
  Patricia first joined the Willingboro Police Department in 1978 as a 
traffic guard and since day one, she has been a comforting presence to 
Willingboro students and residents. Having lived in the town for most 
of her life, I was not surprised to hear that throughout her tenure, 
Patricia was eager to take on additional responsibilities like 
overseeing the bicycle auction. Her commitment to Willingboro earned 
her a promotion to Crossing Guard Supervisor in 2011, where she has 
been a vital addition to training the next generation of crossing 
guards.
  On behalf of our entire district, I want to thank Patricia for her 
tireless commitment to the township of Willingboro, New Jersey. I wish 
Patricia every enjoyment in retirement with her husband and children.
