                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 11, 2010

  Mrs. SCHMIDT. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate 
Mr. Timothy Reilly. Recently, both Tim and his business, Miami Valley 
International Trucks, were awarded the International Circle of 
Excellence Award for 2009.
  Awarded by Navistar, Inc., the Circle of Excellence is given to 
dealerships that ``achieve the highest level of performance in terms of 
operating and financial standards, market representation, and, most 
importantly, customer satisfaction.'' It is the highest honor that an 
International dealer can receive from Navistar.
  Tim purchased Miami Valley International Trucks in 2004. Since then, 
he has earned 14 Circle of Excellence Awards and an Isuzu Ichiban 
Award, given to commercial truck dealers to recognize business 
excellence and civic-mindedness. Under his leadership, Miami Valley 
Trucks has grown to include five dealer locations and two parts and 
services sites in Ohio that employ 367 employees.
  These awards are a testament to Tim's reputation as a leader in the 
trucking industry. This reputation has been honed through his activity 
and commitment to organizations like the Ohio Automobile Dealers 
Association, International Marketing, Sales & Finance Advisory Board, 
and as a former member of the Idealease board of directors. A dedicated 
supporter of his alma mater, Notre Dame, Tim also is a devoted father 
to his twin daughters, now 13 years old.
  Madam Speaker, please join me in congratulating Tim Reilly for his 
accomplishments, his record of success, and his many contributions to 
his community, the State of Ohio, and our Nation.
