  Mr. ROSKAM. Madam Speaker, I am pleased to rise today to recognize 
the long and distinguished service of Carol Stream Fire Protection 
District Chief Michael Kanzia on the occasion of his retirement. On 
September 30 of this year, Chief Kanzia concluded his loyal service to 
the community he has been faithfully serving since 1976.
  On November 19, the Village of Carol Stream will gather to celebrate 
Chief Kanzia's impressive career, from his time as an on-call 
firefighter to his days as Fire Chief.
  Day in and out Chief Kanzia led the men and women of the Carol Stream 
Fire Protection District as they risked their lives to protect our 
communities. His leadership is reflected in their bravery and courage.
  Madam Speaker and Distinguished Colleagues, please join me in 
celebrating this special occasion and the long years of service and 
commitment that it represents.
