  Ms. GINNY BROWN-WAITE of Florida. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
honor Nina Humphries of Zephyrhills, FL. On February 1, 2010, Nina did 
something that all of us strive to do, but that very few of us will 
ever accomplish; she celebrated her 105th birthday.
  Nina Humphries was born February 1st, 1905 in Ontario, Canada. She 
originally came to the United States to attend nursing school in 
Buffalo, New York.
  Widowed by her late husbands George Clayton and Ed Humphries, Nina 
cherishes the time she spends with her family. She has two children, 
Anita and Robert, six grand children, and four great grand children.
  Madam Speaker, on February 5th, the city of Zephyrhills will honor 
Nina's life achievements. I ask you to join me today in honoring her on 
the floor of this House. May we all have the good fortune to live as 
long as she.
