Tuesday, August 31, 2021
Ms. CHENEY. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate Linda Hamilton on being selected for induction into the Wyoming Agriculture Hall of Fame Class of 2021.
Linda grew up on a ranch in the Sandhills of Nebraska and attended college at Northwest College in Powell and later, the University of Wyoming. Linda has long been a leader in her community and in the field of agriculture in Wyoming. Through Linda's willingness to share her extensive knowledge of the agriculture industry, she has become known as a spearhead and a trusted adviser within our local community and other agricultural communities throughout the state.
Linda has dedicated her time and efforts to many events and organizations within the Hyattville community, as well as serving as a founding member of Wyoming Agriculture in the Classroom. Through her activism, Linda was able to further the work of the Wyoming Association of Conservation District to assist farmers and ranchers in improving their operations while also protecting soil, water, plant, and wildlife resources.
You can find Linda feeding bum lambs, driving equipment, wrangling grandchildren, sewing or completing any task that needs to be done on the ranch or within the community on a regular basis. Linda's devotion to the ranch, her family, and the agriculture industry is unmatched. Wyoming is fortunate that Linda chose to move here from Nebraska all those many years ago. Linda possesses a drive and tenacity that is truly unmatched. You will not find anyone as dedicated to the promotion of local agriculture and the ranching way of life.
I thank Linda for her dedication to Wyoming's agriculture industry, and congratulations to her on the well-deserved induction into the Hall of Fame.
