  Mr. HENSARLING. Mr. Speaker, I had the privilege of being one of 
fourteen students in Mrs. Zelma Witt's first kindergarten class in 
Omaha, Texas. Today, I honor Mrs. Zelma Witt for her love of learning 
and thank her for the wonderful gifts she bestowed on all of the 
students who were blessed to be in her classroom.
  Mrs. Witt left an indelible mark on the lives of countless students 
during their earliest and most formative years of schooling. Mrs. Witt 
taught her young pupils the most fundamental building blocks of 
education, setting her students on a path toward higher education and 
brighter futures.
  I feel honored to have been a part of Mrs. Witt's first kindergarten 
class and part of the commitment to learning that she ingrained in her 
young students. May God bless you, Mrs. Witt. Thank you for all the 
gifts you have given us.
