             RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF MRS. CINDY CASTELLO

                                 ______

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, October 24, 2023

  Mr. LOUDERMILK. Mr. Speaker Pro Tempore, I rise today to recognize 
Mrs. Cindy Castello for the vital role she has played in the 
development of Cherokee County, Georgia as a stronghold of conservative 
values.
  Cindy and her husband, Pete, have been friends of my family for many 
years. We have witnessed her character and dedication to our shared 
cause in all of her numerous roles as a community servant. As a 
dedicated leader, Cindy has been instrumental in recruiting and 
developing many community activists to become public servants and run 
for public office. She has utilized her extensive network of 
relationships and years of experience within the Georgia Republican 
Party, the 11th Congressional District, and the Cherokee County 
Republican Party to lay a foundation which will impact Cherokee County 
for years to come.
  She has devoted countless hours volunteering her time, talents, and 
energy to serve eleven years on the Zoning Board of Appeals; and, 
during her eighteen years of service on the Tax Equalization Board, she 
played a vital role for Cherokee County in steering the future of the 
county by applying commonsense conservative values.
  In her thirty-three years of dedicated service on the Cherokee County 
Board of Elections, Cindy has helped to set a standard of excellence, 
and helped develop the Board into one of Georgia's finest and most 
innovative entities.
  She has provided invaluable support and has been instrumental in the 
development of the Cherokee County Republican Party for the past forty 
years. She exemplifies the very best of public service and is truly an 
inspiration to so many. It is abundantly fitting and proper that 
Cindy's dedication to the cause of faith, family, and freedom be 
appropriately recognized in the U.S. House of Representatives.
  On behalf of the citizens of Cherokee County, Georgia's 11th 
Congressional District, and myself and my family, I offer my sincere 
appreciation to Mrs. Cindy Castello for her decades of faithful public 
service to our community.
