                          MAYOR DONALD ARONSON

 Mr. TORRICELLI. Mr. President, I rise today in recognition of 
the mayor of my hometown, Englewood, NJ. Mayor Donald Aronson's 
dedication to the Englewood community and the State of New Jersey make 
it an honor to be able to recognize him. After being elected mayor of 
Englewood three times he has decided not to stand for reelection. As 
his term comes to an end, I would like to convey my good wishes to a 
friend and valued colleague.
  Donald has made innumerable contributions to the residents of 
Englewood and to the State of New Jersey as a whole through numerous 
community service positions. He has served as commissioner and 
secretary of the Palisades Interstate Park Commission, president of the 
Bergen County League of Municipalities, and he has sat on the board of 
trustees for the American Red Cross. In addition, he has been a member 
of the Englewood Board of Adjustment, Englewood Chamber of Commerce, 
and Englewood Economic Development Corp. The list of his community 
activities is endless. The extent of his service to State and local 
organizations is evidence of his lifelong commitment to public service.
  Now, Donald is preparing for a new position as the president of the 
Englewood Chamber of Commerce. I ask that you join me in recognizing 
Mayor Donald Aronson for all of his hard work and his service to the 
State of New Jersey.
