Mr. PAPPAS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Chief Ed Wagner, who is retiring after 25 years of service to the citizens of New Hampshire. Chief Wagner served in the United States Marine Corps before joining the Conway Police Department in 1995. Throughout his distinguished career, Chief Wagner has served as a patrolman, detective, sergeant, lieutenant, and, most recently, as the Chief of Police since 2005.
Chief Wagner, a down-to-earth and supportive leader, has dedicated his career with the Conway Police Department to protecting and serving Conway's citizens and visitors. In retirement, Chief Wagner will be staying in Conway where he will spend quality time with his family, including his first granddaughter, EdynRose.
Chief Wagner served in numerous roles at the Conway Police Department over the years, but his commitment to community service helped him easily adapt to the ever-changing environment. He approached his work with the utmost professionalism, integrity, and courage. His embodiment of these values served as a model to other officers and will continue to be a guiding principle in the Conway Police Department for decades to come.
On behalf of my constituents in New Hampshire's First Congressional District, I want to thank Chief Wagner and his family for their decades of dedication to our community. I congratulate him on his accomplished law enforcement career, and I wish him all the best in his well- deserved retirement.
