                         Tuesday, April 4, 2006

  Mrs. MALONEY. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I 
congratulate Egidiana Maccioni on receiving the 2006 President's Medal 
from Marymount Manhattan College.
  In her family's restaurants, Le Cirque and Osterio de Circo, Mrs. 
Maccioni has worked tirelessly as a chef and hostess, making special 
memories of great food and lively conversation for a diverse community 
of New Yorkers. A woman who has quietly pursued her goals as a wife, 
mother, and businesswoman, Mrs. Maccioni truly embodies the spirit of 
New York City and is more than worthy of this recognition.
  In presenting Egidiana Maccioni with the President's Medal, Marymount 
Manhattan College continues a long tradition of honoring individuals 
who have distinguished themselves through service to their professions 
and communities. I congratulate Mrs. Maccioni on this prestigious 
honor, the latest among her noteworthy achievements.
