  Mr. KILDEE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Lois Corba as she 
celebrates her birthday. A party will be held in her honor on December 
29th in Frankenmuth, MI.
  Lois was born in Tecumseh, MI, one of nine children. The family moved 
to Flint and after her father purchased a farm, the family moved to 
West Branch. She attended St. Joseph Catholic School in West Branch and 
graduated the salutatorian from the high school in 1951. After 
graduation she returned to Flint and worked for an insurance agency for 
7 years. She married Paul Corba in 1957. The couple had 7 children, 
Michelle, Paul Michael, Jon, Marsha, Bernadette, Angela and David. Paul 
passed away in 1987.
  Continuing to work, Lois spent 17 years working as a secretary with 
the AC Spark Plug Division of General Motors. She retired from this 
position in 1992. After two years Lois decided to return to the 
workforce and became the assistant to the director of the Frankenmuth 
Historical Association. From there she took her current position as the 
receptionist with Independence Village in Frankenmuth. She is active 
with the Widow's Group in Frankenmuth and Blessed Trinity Catholic 
Church.
  Madam Speaker, I ask the House of Representatives to join me in 
congratulating Lois Corba as she celebrates her birthday and I wish her 
many, many more.
