HONORING THE MEMORY OF MS. SUSAN SHANK
______
HON. STEVEN M. PALAZZO
of mississippi
in the house of representatives
Monday, April 19, 2021
Mr. PALAZZO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of Ms. Susan Ann Shank who passed away on January 17, 2021 at the age of 70. I send my condolences and prayers to her family and friends.
Susan was born and raised in Biloxi, Mississippi. Susan was the mother of Michael Wills and Angela Hoener. Susan faithfully served the City of Biloxi Police Department Communication Division from March 26, 1987, until retiring on November 26, 2013.
In Susan's twenty-six years of dedicated service, she achieved the position of Floor Supervisor and received many written commendations from citizens for her professional service. Mr. Andrew ``FoFo'' Gillich, Mayor of Biloxi, commemorated and commended the lifelong devotion of Susan by declaring January 17th as ``Susan Ann Shank Day''.
Susan will be remembered by her family and friends who knew her best for her devotion to the state of Mississippi, her faith, accomplishments, and devotion to others.
While we are saddened by her passing, we take comfort in her example of a life well lived and the legacy she leaves behind. On behalf of the 4th Congressional District of Mississippi, we honor the memory of Ms. Susan Ann Shank, a loving wife, a dedicated civil servant, and a woman of God.
