                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 12, 2011

  Mr. STIVERS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today on behalf of the people of 
Ohio's 15th Congressional District and the citizens of Columbus, Ohio, 
to honor the life and memory of Stephanie Auer. Stephanie will always 
be remembered for her willingness and commitment to serve others. Her 
positive outlook and sunny disposition brought great joy to those who 
knew her, and the many contributions she made as a volunteer to a 
number of worthy causes improved the lives of people both here and 
around the world.
  Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Stephanie graduated from 
Manificat High School and attended The Ohio State University. Upon 
graduation, she was employed in the insurance industry as an 
underwriter and worked at Wells Fargo Insurance Services. Along the 
way, Stephanie touched the lives of many of us, and I am fortunate to 
be among those to call her friend.
  Stephanie made her family and friends a priority in her life and was 
always there for others. She led by example and inspired others to step 
up to the plate. Whether it was teaching young girls, volunteering at a 
local clinic or sharing the Gospel in Cambodia, she demonstrated her 
faith and values through her actions and in the way she lived her life.
  Stephanie touched the lives of so many people and she will be missed 
by all those who knew her. Her devotion to her family, friends and 
church will be long remembered.
