                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 6, 2009

  Mr. ROSKAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the 50th 
anniversary of Jarosch Bakery in Elk Grove Village, Illinois in my 
Congressional District.
  Jarosch Bakery was founded in 1959 by father and son George and 
Herbert Jarosch in order to provide quality baked goods to the 
northwest suburbs of Chicago. George emigrated from Germany where he 
had grown up learning the art of baking from his father's business. His 
son Herbert, a veteran of the Korean War and a trained baker, worked 
with his father to establish this successful business in downtown Elk 
Grove.
  Together with their wives and children the business has grown today 
into a successful company that employs more than 50 employees, many of 
whom have worked for the bakery for over 20 years. The bakery has grown 
by leaps and bounds, creating a welcoming environment for customers and 
producing some of the community's most sought-after treats. Through the 
years, the success of this business has depended on the tireless work 
of the Jarosch family and their dedicated employees.
  Madam Speaker and Distinguished Colleagues, please join me in 
recognizing this 50th Anniversary as we celebrate Jarosch Bakery's 
legacy of hard work entrepreneurial spirit.

                          ____________________
