                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 12, 1995
  Mr. CLINGER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Denny and 
Rose Heindl of Ridgway, PA.
  On Thursday, July 20, the citizens of Ridgway will gather to dedicate 
a new fieldhouse and sports pavilion. It is through the generosity and 
leadership of Denny and Rose Heindl that this day was made possible.
  Not only did Denny and Rose provide the funding for materials 
necessary for the year-round sports facility, but they also contributed 
their time and energy in its construction. By example, they led what 
became a true community effort in building the fieldhouse. Since March, 
as many as 30 volunteers have gathered nightly to make the fieldhouse a 
reality.
  But this is not an isolated instance. It is one shining example of 
the Heindls' boundless community spirit and selflessness.
  Last year, they donated funds for materials to rebuild the high 
school annex building into a community sports complex. Most recently, 
they announced that they will fund the replacement of lights at the 
field around the sport pavilion.
  Denny and Rose Heindl have helped to build facilities that the youth 
of Ridgway will enjoy and that the entire community will treasure. In 
so doing, they have also brought people together and strengthened 
Ridgway's sense of unity and civic pride.
  Thank you, Mr. Speaker, for the opportunity to recognize these very 
special people. Congratulations to them and to all of Ridgway's 
dedicated volunteers.
