                        Thursday, April 22, 2004

  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor a respected 
member of the Philadelphia community. Mr. William Galbraith recently 
turned 90 years young.
  Mr. Galbraith celebrated his 90th birthday this April 14, 2004. He 
has led an exemplary life filled with admirable achievements. Whether 
it be graduating from the Philadelphia College of Textiles and Science 
or becoming the head of a carpet mill, Mr. Galbraith has been an 
exemplary figure for our great city.
  This nonagenarian wisely has continued to show a real zest for life. 
Until recently, Mr. Galbraith remained an avid golfer, skier, and 
tennis player. He has traveled extensively including a trip to China to 
teach workers how to use mill equipment.
  Married to Anna, Mr. Galbraith's family includes his nephew Clyde 
Galbraith and his niece Joyce Burke. I am quite sure his entire family 
is very proud of his numerous accomplishments.
  Along with her family and friends, I ask that you and my other 
distinguished colleagues join me in congratulating Mr. William 
Galbraith during his 90th birthday celebration.
