RECOGNIZING JANA DETTY

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 116 (Thursday, July 16, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 116 (Thursday, July 16, 2026)] [House] [Page H4548] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] RECOGNIZING JANA DETTY (Mr. TAYLOR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. TAYLOR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a treasured member of our Buckeye community, Jana Detty, and celebrate her retirement after a storied career spanning 50 years. While studying at Hocking Technical College to pursue a career in medical records, Jana set out to look for a summer job. At the time, she had no idea of the great career it would launch for her. Her neighbor was the manager at a local McDonald's on Western Avenue, so Jana threw her hat in the ring. She nailed the interview and started her job as a crew member, quickly climbing through the ranks and moving to shift manager, then assistant manager, general manager, supervisor, and, finally, human resources manager in 2009. Jana is known for her kindness and commitment to excellence. She also demonstrated her leadership by raising over half a million dollars for charity, to provide a home away from home for families of children undergoing serious medical treatments. Mr. Speaker, southern Ohio is proud to call Jana one of our own. We thank her for her years of dedication to our community and congratulate her on her retirement. ____________________
