  Mr. SHAYS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with great pleasure and distinct 
honor to wish Martha Falk of Darien, CT, a very happy 100th birthday.
  Martha's leadership in founding 60 Plus, as well as her continued 
commitment to Children's Aid, participation in each Memorial Day Parade 
and devotion to numerous charitable organizations, are an inspiration 
to us all.
  We salute Martha for being such an outstanding, vivacious role model 
for her peers and the community. Darien is a better place to live and 
work thanks to Martha's humorous outlook and dedication to improving 
and enhancing the lives of others.
  Martha is a real treasure! She can look back on a long and fulfilling 
life with the satisfaction of having made a significant contribution 
and look ahead to the opportunity to add to these precious memories.
  I am proud to have Martha Falk as a constituent and wish her 
continued happiness and success.
