                        Thursday, July 26, 2007

  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize two 
outstanding constituents of Missouri's Sixth Congressional District: G. 
Keith and Wanda Shupe of Stanberry, Missouri. Keith and Wanda will 
celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary on July 27, 2007.
  Keith and Wanda were married on July 27, 1957 at the Francis Street 
First United Methodist Church in St. Joseph, MO by the Reverend Powell. 
They have two children, Tim Shupe of Stanberry, MO and Jackie Shupe of 
Columbia, MO. They also have two grandchildren, Derek Shupe of St. 
Croix, VI, and Brooke Shupe of Washington, DC.
  Keith and Wanda Shupe have been outstanding citizens of Gentry County 
and Northwest Missouri for the past 50 years. Keith is a semi-retired 
farmer from a third generation family farm and Wanda is a retired 
hairdresser and office manager for the Tenorio's Doctors office in 
Albany, MO. Keith and Wanda have been lifetime supporters of the 
Republican Party within the 6th district and across Missouri. Wanda is 
currently a member of the Missouri Federation of Republican Women and 
serves as treasurer for the 6th district Republican Congressional 
Committee.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing Keith and 
Wanda Shupe. Their marriage of 50 years is inspirational, and I am 
honored to represent them in the Congress.
