                       Wednesday, April 30, 2003

  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the five-year 
anniversary of the United Community Bank in Denton County, Texas. The 
United Community Bank opened its doors on May 27, 1998, in Highland 
Village to provide hometown service to the local community. Coordinated 
by local area shareholders, the customers in need of exceptional 
attention to both their individual as well as commercial needs are 
provided with outstanding service. Not only has United Community Bank 
been honored with the Reader's Choice Award as the #1 financial 
institution in Denton County, but it was also selected as the Business 
of the Month by the Lewisville, Flower Mound and Old Town Business 
Association during 2002.
  Today I honor the employees of United Community Bank for their 
continued hard work in garnering the community support that has 
significantly contributed to the expansion of the bank's assets as well 
as to a contented customer base. I also thank the numerous customers of 
United Community Bank who have shared in creating such success over the 
last five years. May there be many more years of thriving business in 
Denton County.
