DISTINGUISHED SERVICE
HON. JACK BERGMAN
of michigan
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, May 12, 2026
Mr. BERGMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor and to recognize Michelle Crocker, the longest serving county clerk currently in office in the state of Michigan, as she marks the 30th anniversary of her swearing in as Leelanau County Clerk.
steadfast commitment to public service and the people of Leelanau County. Her time as county clerk reflects not just longevity, but an unwavering dedication to the responsibilities entrusted to her office. Her career in public service is not limited to her time as county clerk: in fact, she has spent 45 years serving in local government starting with Clerk Dorothy Wunderlich in 1981, making her the longest serving employee in county government. Throughout her distinguished career, she has helped guide Leelanau County through significant changes, including the conversion of county financial systems from paper spreadsheets to computerized financial programs. Her leadership has ensured that local government continues to operate efficiently and transparently.
Michelle Crocker's service has not gone unnoticed. In 2021, she was presented with a special tribute by the Michigan State Legislature for her steadfast leadership through unprecedented challenges and evolving expectations in local government. Her ability to meet the demands of public service with professionalism and a genuine commitment to others sets a strong example for public officials across our state.
Mr. Speaker, let us all join in recognizing Michelle Crocker for her lasting contributions to Leelanau County and the State of Michigan. On behalf of Michigan's 1st Congressional District, I extend my sincere appreciation for her extraordinary service as she celebrates this remarkable milestone.
