                      Wednesday, November 30, 2011

  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Spencer Rosenak. Spencer is a very special young man who has 
exemplified the finest qualities of citizenship and leadership by 
taking an active part in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 216, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Spencer has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Spencer has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Spencer has 
earned the rank of Brave in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say, participated in the 
2010 National Jamboree and has held several leadership positions within 
his troop, including Assistant Patrol Leader and as the Chaplain's 
Aide. Spencer has also contributed to his community through his Eagle 
Scout project. Spencer documented the directory of those buried at 
B'nai Yaakov Cemetery in St. Joseph, Missouri, and created a map of the 
plots in the cemetery. Spencer then published his work on the internet, 
providing an online directory for anyone interested in those buried at 
the cemetery.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Spencer 
Rosenak for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
