HONORING ANTHONY HERZOG
______
HON. TOM MARINO
of pennsylvania
in the house of representatives
Friday, February 24, 2012
Mr. MARINO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of my constituent, Mr. Anthony Herzog, who will be honored this weekend for his dedication to the Wayne County community.
Upon his graduation from Lackawanna Junior College and the University of New Haven, Mr. Herzog began his 33-year tenure with Herzog Trucking Co., Inc., where he ultimately served as President from 1982 2004.
Until his retirement last year, Mr. Herzog was dedicated to serving his community honorably as a Wayne County Commissioner for the past 24 years. His accomplishments as a Commissioner are too numerous to list, but Mr. Herzog has been instrumental in the completion of several major initiatives in Wayne County, including construction of the Wayne County Emergency Management Operations Center, the expansion of the Area Agency on Aging, and the creation of the Wayne County Mental Health/
Mental Retardation Agency.
In 1998, Governor Tom Ridge appointed Mr. Herzog to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Advisory Committee. Mr. Herzog continues to serve in that capacity today.
Mr. Herzog's local involvement includes organizations such as the Honesdale Lions Club, the Fraternal Order of Eagles, the Wayne County Family Center Board, the NEPA Alliance, and the Wayne County Board of Elections, where he serves as current Chairman. He is also an active member of St. John's and St. Mary's Parish.
With his wife Sharon, Mr. Herzog is the father of two: Andrea and Steven, and the grandfather to three: Emma, Brady, and Heather.
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my constituent, Mr. Anthony Herzog, and ask my colleagues to join me in praising his commitment to community, country, and family.
