                       IN HONOR OF FERNANDO NUESI

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. EDOLPHUS TOWNS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 12, 2001

  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Fernando Nuesi, a 
native of the Dominican Republic. Mr. Nuesi is currently residing in 
the Cypress Hills section of East New York, Brooklyn. He is devoted to 
making his community a better place in which to live and work.
  Fernando Nuesi was born and raised in Puerto Plata. He obtained his 
pilot's license from Pan American Aviation Academy in 1982. He is also 
a graduate of Bronx Community College. Fernando decided to take on a 
new venture by opening the Atlantic Car Service Base. This was a much 
needed transportation service for the East New York Community. His 
company provided around-the-clock service for all the boroughs, 
airports and connecting states.
  In 1989, Fernando furthered his entrepreneurship with his Used Car 
Dealership. He sells automobiles, both wholesale and retail, to the 
community and people all over the world. He has lived in the East New 
York area for over 24 years; he often expresses the pleasure he has in 
working and living in the same community. Fernando and his family are 
loyal members of Blessed Sacrament RC Church.
  Mr. Speaker, Fernando Nuesi has been an extremely positive force in 
his community for several years. As such, he is more than deserving of 
receiving our recognition today, and I hope that all of my colleagues 
will join me in honoring this truly outstanding man.
