                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 25, 2003

  Ms. HART. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to have the opportunity to pay 
tribute to an outstanding health care facility located in the district 
I represent in the U.S. House of Representatives. 2003 marks the 40th 
anniversary of McGuire Memorial, an outstanding provider of care for 
the multiply handicapped. McGuire was founded in 1962 by the Catholic 
Diocese of Pittsburgh through a proposal by the Felician Sisters.
  I have personally visited McGuire and, as such, am familiar with the 
level of care and compassion that this remarkable facility offers its 
patients. I was inspired by my visit to McGuire and am pleased at the 
growth that the facility has experienced over the years.
  I ask my colleagues in the House of Representatives to join me in 
wishing continued success to McGuire Memorial on the celebration of its 
40th Anniversary.
