                        Wednesday, July 11, 2012

  Mrs. McCARTHY of New York. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
honor my friend, John P. Broder, upon his retirement from Winthrop-
University Hospital.
  Mr. Broder has been in the marketing, public affairs and development 
profession for 42 years. For the past 20 years, he has been the Vice 
President for External Affairs and Development at Winthrop-University 
Hospital. He was responsible for government relations and development 
programs and has been instrumental in establishing the marketing, 
advertising and public affairs department at the Hospital.
  Mr. Broder received his degree in business administration from the 
St. Michael's College in Vermont and earned his MBA in Marketing from 
the Hagen Graduate School of Business at Iona College. In addition, Mr. 
Broder was honorably discharged from the U.S. Army after serving a 
combat tour in the Republic of Vietnam. He began his career with the 
United Way of Tri-State before moving to the Columbia Presbyterian 
Medical Center where he was responsible for the hospital's successful 
$110 million capital campaign. Prior to joining the team at Winthrop, 
Mr. Broder was the Vice President in charge of the development programs 
at Long Island Jewish Medical Center.
  In addition to his impressive career, Mr. Broder has made time to 
serve the community through a variety of organizations. He is the Vice 
President of the Mineola Chamber of Commerce, a board member and past 
President of the Mineola Lions Club, Director of the Fair Media 
Council, works with the Mineola Community Planning Committee, and is a 
member of the Corporate Advisory Committee of Literacy Nassau, to name 
a few.
  For more than 30 years Mr. Broder has been a resident of Long Island 
and through his work and his volunteer service he has done a great deal 
to help improve our communities.
  Mr. Speaker, it is with admiration and respect that I offer my thanks 
and recognition to my friend John P. Broder for his many years of hard 
work and friendship.
