  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Michelle Meierhoffer of Saint Joseph, Missouri. Michelle is active in 
the community through her work and has been chosen to receive the YWCA 
Women of Excellence Award for Emerging Leader.
   Michelle Meierhoffer is a recent addition to the Saint Joseph 
community, and in her three years here has already garnered awards and 
appreciation through civic and professional endeavors. Pfizer 
Pharmaceuticals has recognized her contributions as a Sales 
Representative with numerous awards, including the company's top honor. 
She has lent her considerable energy and imagination to the Junior 
League and the Albrecht Kemper Museum of Art. She embodies her own 
words to others to ``do their best and think outside the box to obtain 
their goals using new and exciting means.''
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing Michelle 
Meierhoffer. She has already made an amazing impact on countless 
individuals in the St. Joseph Community. I am honored to represent her 
in the United States Congress.
