  Mr. SCHWARZ of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, let it be known, that it is 
with great respect for the outstanding record of excellence she has 
compiled in academics, leadership, and community service, that I am 
proud to salute Heather Meyer, winner of the 2005 LeGrand Smith 
Scholarship. This award is given to young adults who have demonstrated 
their true commitment to playing an important role in our Nation's 
future.
  As a winner of the LeGrand Smith Scholarship, Catherine is being 
honored for demonstrating the same generosity of spirit, intelligence, 
responsible citizenship, and capacity for human service that 
distinguished the late LeGrand Smith of Somerset, Michigan.
  Heather is an exceptional student at Addison High School. Aside from 
being one of the highest in her class academically, Catherine possesses 
an outstanding record of achievement. She has been very active in the 
National Honors Society, Girls State, FFA and 4-H, as well as other 
community and school activities. She has also devoted a great deal of 
her time volunteering to help others.
  On behalf of the United States Congress, I am proud to join her many 
admirers in offering our highest praise and congratulations to Heather 
Meyer for her selection as winner of the 2005 LeGrand Smith 
Scholarship. This honor not only recognizes her efforts, but also is a 
testament to her parents, teachers, and other individuals whose 
personal interest, steadfast support, and active participation 
contributed to her success. To this remarkable young woman, we extend 
our most heartfelt good wishes for all her future endeavors.
