                      Wednesday, February 13, 2008

  Mr. WALSH of New York. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
75th anniversary of Coleman's Authentic Irish Pub in Syracuse, New 
York.
  Founded in 1933, Coleman's, located on Tipperary Hill, is a fixture 
of the Central New York community. Throughout its long history. 
Coleman's has transformed from a working man's saloon in the 1930's to 
a college hot spot in the 1970's to the first class restaurant and pub 
it is today. With its great food, wonderful service, and Irish 
atmosphere. Coleman's Authentic Irish Pub is a place for all 
generations to enjoy and is a premiere attraction in central New York.
  Coleman's has always strived to maintain the highest standards of 
public service, and I am proud to recognize them today. I congratulate 
owner Peter J. Coleman, his wife Mary Pat and children, and his 
employees, both past and present, on reaching this milestone. On behalf 
of the people of the 25th District of New York, I thank them for their 
75 years of business that has been such a positive influence on the 
community.
