  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Celeste Maia Cron and 
her upcoming induction into the San Mateo County Women's Hall of Fame.
  After 25 years as the head of local printing and graphics firm, 
Celeste Maia Cron became the first woman to head the printing office 
for the State of California. At the printing office, Ms. Cron has 
started an in-house women's support group to deal with job 
discrimination, spousal and partner abuse, and other family related 
problems. Previously, she founded the Friends of the Advisory Council 
on Women and served as the president of the Private Industry Council 
and Soroptomists International of Burlingame/San Mateo. Ms. Cron is a 
prominent leader in our community and has been honored with a number of 
awards including the 1991 Volunteer Recognition Award by the Volunteer 
Center, a Palo Alto Junior League award for her work in education, the 
Key Award from the March of Dimes, and the National Association of 
Printers and Lithographers Award for Exceptional Employee 
Relationships.
  Mr. Speaker, Celeste Maia Cron is an outstanding citizen, and I 
commend her for remarkable commitment and contributions to our 
[[Page E510]] community. I ask my colleagues to join me in saluting her 
as she is being inducted into the San Mateo County Women's Hall of 
Fame.
