  Mr. TOOMEY. Mr. Speaker, today I pay tribute to a group of my 
constituents who do volunteer work helping others in my district. Over 
300 volunteers at the Good Shepherd rehabilitation facility recently 
received Raker Memorial Awards for their service. These volunteers 
contributed over 38,000 hours of service in 1999, helping to improve 
the lives of thousands of people in the community. From assisting 
residents with their chores to inspiring

them during difficult physical therapy, the acts of these volunteers 
show the depth of their generosity and compassion. The volunteers help 
individuals with disabilities achieve their full potential, and 
represent a light of hope to the entire community. I applaud Good 
Shepherd's wonderful volunteers for providing a service that aids so 
many members of the Lehigh Valley community. Mr. Speaker, all the 
volunteers at the Good Shepherd rehabilitation facility are Lehigh 
Valley Heroes.
