                          HON. SUSAN MOLINARI

                              of new york

                        Thursday, August 4, 1994

  Ms. MOLINARI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with great pride in a member 
of my district. Adelaide Kassenbrock has been recognized as the Bay 
Ridge Community Council Civic Award winner. She has received this award 
for her outstanding and relentless dedication in serving the Bay Ridge 
community for over 50 years.
  As a registered nurse during World War II, Adelaide Kassenbrock 
worked as a volunteer for the American Red Cross. Following her 
retirement, she continued to be a volunteer for many years at the 
Goldwater Hospital on Roosevelt Island. For over 30 years, Adelaide 
Kassenbrock has participated in many activities and served on every 
committee as a member of the Bay Ridge Community Council. She has been 
the vice president, recording secretary, corresponding secretary and 
historian. She is a founding member of the Kassenbrock Brothers 
Memorial Scholarship Fund, an organization of vital importance in Bay 
Ridge because it raises thousands of dollars in scholarship aid each 
year for needy high school seniors.
  Adelaide Kassenbrock's accomplishments and contributions compare 
second to none. She has been the president of the Women's Guild of the 
Lutheran Medical Center and served as secretary in the Bay Ridge 
Nursery. As a founding member of the Bay Ridge Mental Health Council, 
she currently serves as the corresponding secretary. I could go on and 
on about the wonderful service Adelaide Kassenbrock has provided to Bay 
Ridge. I am proud to have Adelaide Kassenbrock as a constituent. Her 
devotion to Bay Ridge is simply unequaled.
