  Mr. CASTLE. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I rise today 
to honor and pay tribute to Jennifer Crouse upon her nomination as a 
Jefferson Award finalist. Ms. Crouse is the founder of Fun Packs. Fun 
Packs are for use by children patients at area hospitals to help young 
children through difficult times in their lives. In 200I, the program 
was expanded to include Care Packs, which were distributed to service 
people who were deployed through the Dover Air Force base. Ms. Crouse 
has volunteered within the community for more than 10 years, and has 
logged more than 3,200 volunteer hours.
  Ms. Crouse's volunteer efforts have touched the lives of many in our 
community. Ms. Crouse is a deserving candidate for the Jefferson Award.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend and congratulate Ms. Crouse upon her 
nomination as a finalist for the Jefferson Award. Ms. Crouse is truly 
worthy of this honor.
