Rec. E1936 | Congressional Record, Volume 142 Issue 143 (Monday, October 21, 1996) [Congressional Record Volume 142, Number 143 (Monday, October 21, 1996)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Pages E1936-E1937] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] TRIBUTE TO ROBERT H. STEINER ______ HON. DAVID E. BONIOR of michigan in the house of representatives Monday, October 21, 1996 Mr. BONIOR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the treasurer of the charter township of Clinton, MI, Mr. Robert H. Steiner. After 33 years of devoted service to the people of Clinton Township, Bob Steiner has decided to retire. For over three decades, the residents knew they could count on Bob Steiner to perform his responsibilities with professionalism and competence. In addition to his role as the township treasurer, Bob Steiner has served as a member of the Planning Commission for 9 years and as a township trustee for 4 terms of office. In his ongoing attempt to serve the public more ably, he has taken numerous other leadership positions. For example, Bob is currently the director of three groups vital to the well-being of everyone in the community: the Clinton Township Economic Development Corp., the Michigan Townships Association, and the Grosse Pointes Clinton Refuse Disposal Authority. The list of other organizations in which Bob has been involved, is simply too lengthy to include. But it is safe to say that if there was a concern raised in Clinton Township, Bob was responsive to it. His many civic responsibilities did not prevent him from devoting his time, energy, and talents to many community projects through volunteer work. Bob and his family have been active in their church and in the Clinton Valley and Chippewa Valley Kiwanis Clubs. He has worked on behalf of the Clinton Township Goodfellows organization and many school, academic, and sports activities. It was nearly 25 years ago that I first knocked on the Steiner door and met Bob and his wonderful wife, Alice. Since that time, Bob and I have enjoyed a close working relationship on local, State, and Federal issues. I have watched with respect as the township has grown under his steady leadership. The true measure of his commitment to the people of Clinton Township, is his son's similar interest in public service, obviously learned and nurtured at home. After 33 years of public service, I thank Bob for his fine work and commend him for his exceptional dedication and outstanding contributions. He will be missed by us all. We wish him the very best in the future as he enters a well-deserved retirement. As family and friends and associates gather on Friday, November 8, 1996, to honor Bob and Alice on [[Page E1937]] this special occasion, I join in the chorus of congratulations and appreciation. ____________________ |
