                            HON. JERRY LEWIS

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, February 10, 1994

  Mr. LEWIS of California. Mr. Speaker, I would like to bring to your 
attention the fine work and inspired leadership of Lynda and Phil 
Savage of San Bernardino, CA. The Savages, who have demonstrated a 
remarkable dedication to the needs of San Bernardino over the past 25 
years, will be honored for their commitment to the Inland Empire 
Symphony later this month as they are presented with the 1994 Golden 
Baton Award.
  Lynda and Phil grew up in San Bernardino, attended local schools, and 
returned to the area to establish their professional careers and raise 
their family. Lynda taught school for 10 years and Phil joined a local 
law firm where he is today a practicing partner. Their involvement and 
active leadership in the community, ranging from education to the law 
to the arts, has been instrumental to San Bernardino maintaining its 
civic culture and pride.
  As community leaders, Phil and Lynda are well known for their long-
term and dedicated service to numerous organizations throughout the 
inland empire. Lynda has served in a variety of leadership positions 
including the presidency of the Law Auxiliary of San Bernardino County, 
Assistance League of San Bernardino, the National Charity League, and 
the Inland Empire YWCA. She has also been active in the Inland Empire 
Symphony Guild and served on the Board. Lynda is currently the vice 
president of Les Confreres, and elder and active member of the First 
Presbyterian Church, and is an active member of the Tachikawa Sister-
City Committee. She was recently elected president of the San 
Bernardino Unified School District Board of Education. Phil has 
received local and statewide recognition for his accomplishment in the 
field of law and has distinguished himself in the area of community 
service through his involvement with Arrowhead United Way, San 
Bernardino County Heart Association, the Boys' Club of San Bernardino, 
the Inland Empire Symphony Association, and other civic organizations.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that you join me, our colleagues, Phil and Lynda's 
children, Sheryl and Philip, and their many friends in honoring this 
special couple for their extensive and dedicated service. Over the 
years, Linda and Phil have touched the lives of many people in our 
community and it is only fitting that the House recognize them today.
