           MALCOLM S. PRAY, JR. NAMED ``CITIZEN OF THE YEAR''

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. CHRISTOPHER SHAYS

                             of connecticut

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, March 13, 2002

  Mr. SHAYS. Mr. Speaker, I rise to commend my constituent and good 
friend, Malcolm S. Pray, Jr. on being named ``Citizen of the Year'' by 
the Greenwich, Connecticut Rotary Club. I truly cannot think of an 
individual more deserving of this award.
  Over the years, Malcolm's love of his town and dedication to serving 
the community have been exemplary. His civic activity in greater-
Greenwich has truly run the gamut--ranging from the Boy Scouts, to the 
Boys and Girls Club, to the Greenwich Symphony, to the Garden Club and 
the Greenwich Red Cross.
  As a prominent automobile dealer, Malcolm has served as president of 
state, national, and international automobile dealers trade 
associations. Whether chairing the Soap Box Derby or showing his 
impressive personal automobile collection to aficionados, Malcolm is 
equally at home and willing to share his passion for automobiles with 
others.
  Greenwich is truly a better place to live and work thanks to Malcolm 
Pray, and it is an honor for me to join the Greenwich Rotary and his 
larger community in taking the opportunity to recognize his outstanding 
commitment by naming him ``Citizen of the Year.''
