     IN HONOR OF ROBERT AND HELEN GRUBBS' 50TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

                                 ______


                           HON. GLENN POSHARD

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, October 7, 1994

  Mr. POSHARD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my good friends 
Robert and Helen Grubbs of Eldorado, Illinois, who on August 5, 1994 
celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. In an era when families find 
it more difficult to stay together, the Grubbs are certainly deserving 
of this recognition for their 50 year union.
  Through the years, Robert and Helen have contributed greatly to our 
community. Many in our area know Robert and Helen best for the 25 years 
they owned and operated the roller rink in Eldorado. Robert has also 
been active in local politics for over 40 years, serving many of those 
as Democratic precinct committeeman.
  Robert and Helen have a son, and daughter-in-law, Harvey and Diane 
Grubbs of Eldorado and a daughter and son-in-law, Evelyn and Dr. Larry 
Jennings of Mt. Carmel. Robert and Helen also have six grandchildren 
and one great-granddaughter.
  Along with the people of the 19th Congressional District, I 
congratulate Robert and Helen on this very special occasion, and I wish 
them and their family good health and greatest happiness in the many 
years to come. May we all live such rich and distinguished lives as 
Robert and Helen Grubbs.
