                         Tuesday, June 2, 2009

  Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize a 
dedicated group of men and women in Northern Virginia. For the past 
twenty-five years, each member of the Fairfax County Board of 
Supervisors has selected two people from their district who have 
demonstrated an exceptional commitment to our community. Since the 
program's inception in 1984, more than 470 individuals have been 
recognized as a Lord or Lady Fairfax by their representative on the 
Board of Supervisors.
  Individuals recognized as Lords and Ladies of Fairfax have made 
significant contributions in their communities. This year, the Fairfax 
County Board of Supervisors recognized outstanding individuals who have 
made tremendous impacts through their support of our public schools, 
parks, youth sports leagues, arts community, public safety providers, 
and human service programs. It is nearly impossible to fully describe 
the diversity of accomplishments by the honorees. Their efforts 
contribute greatly to the quality of life for the residents of Fairfax 
County and should be commended.
  The following individuals were recognized as Lord and Lady Fairfax 
Honorees for 2009. Each of these individuals was selected as a result 
of his or her outstanding volunteer service, heroism, or other special 
achievements. These individuals have earned our praise and 
appreciation.
  Chairman of the Board--At Large: Lady Corazon Sandoval Foley and Lord 
William ``Bill'' Hanks
  Braddock District: Lady Pamela K. Barrett and Lord Thomas Frenzinger
  Dranesville District: Lady Lisa Lombardozzi and Lord Vance Zavela
  Hunter Mill District: Lady Joan Dempsey and Lord Howard Springsteen
  Lee District: Lady Michele Menapace and Lord Doug Koelemay

  Providence District: Lady Lola Quintela and Lord G. Ray Worley
  Springfield District: Lady Leslie Carlin and -Lord Erik Hawkins

  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in expressing gratitude 
to these men and women who volunteer their time and energy on behalf of 
our community. The selfless commitment of these individuals provides 
inumerable benefits to Northern Virginia and serves to strengthen and 
enrich our communities.
