  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I would like to pay tribute to 
a very special occasion today--Mrs. Winnie Martha Doss's 100th 
birthday. Mrs. Doss will gather with her friends and family to mark the 
occasion on March 17, 2007.
  Mrs. Doss currently resides in the Jacksonville Health and 
Rehabilitation Center in Jacksonville, Alabama. Mrs. Doss spent 30 
years working at Avondale Textile Mills. She has four children, 12 
grandchildren, 29 great-grandchildren and 22 great-great-grandchildren. 
Mrs. Doss spends her time working on word search puzzles and 
crocheting. She enjoys receiving cards and uses them to decorate the 
walls of her room.
  I salute this remarkable woman for her long life, and dedication to 
family.
