  Mr. GILLMOR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay special tribute to an 
outstanding couple from Ohio's Fifth Congressional District, Mike and 
Joella Kerschner. I extend my best wishes to Mike and Joella, who will 
be celebrating their Twenty-Fifth Wedding Anniversary on Saturday, May 
23, 1998.
  Mr. Speaker, Mike and Joella exemplify what a loving, strong, healthy 
marriage should be. For as long as I have known them, Mike and Joella 
have been the best of friends and the closest of companions. Through 
their marriage vows, they have dedicated their lives to each other, to 
share in the joy of marriage. As we celebrate the Twenty-Fifth Wedding 
Anniversary of Mike and Joella's wedding, let us reflect on their 
lives, their love for one another, and wish them a happy and healthy 
marriage in the years to come.
  Mr. Speaker, as Mike and Joella Kerschner celebrate this very special 
occasion, I wish them, their children, Karl, John, and Chris, and all 
of their families many years of love and happiness. I hope my 
colleagues will join me in congratulating Mike and Joella Kerschner on 
their Twenty-Fifth Wedding Anniversary, and in wishing them the very 
best in the future.

                          ____________________
