  Mr. ALEXANDER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and recognize 
Angela Bruscato for 35 years of volunteer service to St. Francis 
Medical Center. Angie has continually demonstrated the mission of St. 
Francis Medical Center through her commitment to reaching out to others 
in their time of need. She has brought comfort and hope to patients and 
their families with her sincere concern for their welfare.
  Angie joined the St. Francis Medical Center volunteer program in May 
of 1975, and as of March 17, 2010, she has volunteered 19,696 hours of 
service. With her many talents, Angie has held many positions as a 
volunteer and on the Auxiliary Executive Board, and has helped raise 
$450,000 to benefit the health care facility.
  Angie is a shining example of how one person can change the world for 
many. Justly, Angie has been recognized for her caring service over the 
years. In 1990, she was awarded the Auxilian of the Year. In 1993, St. 
Francis Medical Center awarded her a Certificate of Merit for Dedicated 
Auxiliary Service. In 2004, she received the Volunteer of the Year 
award.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Angela Bruscato. This 
truly amazing and selfless individual has continued to bring joy to the 
patients and employees of the St. Francis Medical Center for 35 years.
