  Mr. KANJORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to my good 
friend Attorney William Anzalone of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, who is 
being honored by the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick of Greater Pittston 
as the recipient of their annual Swingle Award.
  Mr. Anzalone owns and operates Anzalone Law Offices, a personal 
injury trial practice with offices in Wilkes-Barre, Scranton and 
Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
  A past president of the Luzerne County Bar Association, the 
Northeastern Pennsylvania Trial Lawyers Association and the Luzerne 
County Bar Charitable Foundation, he has received certification by the 
National Board of Trial Advocacy and the American Board of Trial 
Advocates.
  Attorney Anzalone has been chosen by his peers for the title of 
``Super Lawyer'' for the past three years, a distinction that places 
him in the top five percent of practicing lawyers in Pennsylvania.
  Bill has served numerous civic organizations. He is a past president 
of the Wilkes-Barre Chapter of UNICO, having chaired its annual 
football game for several years. He currently serves as chairman of 
UNICO's gift committee.
  He is a past member of the board of directors of the St. Vincent 
DePaul Soup Kitchen, the Lackawanna Junior College, the Greater Wilkes-
Barre Chamber of Business and Industry and Leadership Wilkes-Barre.
  In 2005, he was inducted into the Luzerne County Sports Hall of Fame 
due to his performance as a defensive back on Temple University's 
football team.
  Bill is married to the former Tina Medico and they are the parents of 
three beautiful children.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in congratulating Attorney Anzalone on 
this auspicious occasion. Attorney Anzalone's contributions to his 
community speak for themselves. His commitment to service is an 
inspiration to all.
