                        Wednesday, March 7, 2012

  Mr. GONZALEZ. Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in 
recognizing Randy and Shari Pulman of San Antonio on being honored at 
the 2012 Congregation Agudas Achim's Annual Gala and Honors Evening.
  Over the years, they have been shining examples for our community and 
have left an indelible mark on the well-being and development of 
countless San Antonians. Shari and Randy have set a high standard of 
leadership through their dedication to Agudas Achim Congregation and 
the entire community of San Antonio.
  Since 1995, Mr. Pulman has served on the Agudas Achim's Board of 
Trustees, most recently serving as Vice President-Finance 
Administration and as Treasurer of Agudas Achim's Endowment Fund Board 
of Directors. Mr. Pulman's civic engagement is not limited to the 
Agudas Achim congregation, but includes various leadership roles at 
Camp Young Judea, the Golden Manor Foundation, and Israel Bonds. Mrs. 
Pulman's active leadership within the community is evident through her 
involvement as Vice President of Golden Manor Jewish Senior Services, 
President of the Campus Board of Directors of the Harry and Jeanette 
Weinberg Campus of the San Antonio Jewish Community, and President of 
the Barshop JCC. Mrs. Pulman was also recognized with the Jewish 
Federation of San Antonio's Sylvia F. and Harry Sugarman Young 
Leadership Award in 1998 for her efforts on their Board of Directors. 
Additionally, Shari and Randy Pulman both hold leadership positions 
within the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
  During the course of just a few years, their tireless support of 
Israel and the work they have done for Congregation Agudas Achim have 
been an inspiration to all those around them and a model for 
generations to follow. I would again ask you to congratulate Shari and 
Randy Pulman on being honored at the 2012 Congregation Agudas Achim's 
Annual Gala and Honors evening.
