                       IN HONOR OF JANICE MARVEL

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. MICHAEL N. CASTLE

                              of delaware

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 22, 2010

  Mr. CASTLE. Madam Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I pay 
tribute today to Janice Marvel, the incoming President of the Ladies 
Auxiliary of the Delaware Volunteer Firemen's Association (LADVFA).
  President Marvel has been a life-long member of the Roxana Fire 
Company Auxiliary. Like many other members of the Auxiliary and Fire 
Departments, President Marvel's involvement in the volunteer fire 
service has been a family affair--with history both in Maryland and 
Delaware. It has been said that being part of the fire service is like 
being part of a family, and in Janice Marvel's case, this rings 
particularly true.
  Prior to being elected to this new post, President Marvel served as 
President of the Auxiliary at Roxana having joined the Department in 
1978. She and her husband Todd, who is the President of Roxana have 
dedicated their lives to their community and the volunteer fire 
service. I believe her worthy of the honor of holding the presidential 
office.
  The LADVFA serves such an important function in our community, and to 
be as effective as possible, they must have dedicated and organized 
leaders. I have every confidence that President Marvel will provide the 
LADVFA the leadership it requires and is known for. I wish her the very 
best in her new role.
