  Ms. NORTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to ask the House of 
Representatives to join me in congratulating McGuire Funeral Service, 
Inc. (McGuire) on its 100th anniversary of service to the residents of 
the District of Columbia and the national capital region.
  Founded in 1912 by Robert G. McGuire on H Street NE, McGuire has 
offered families in the national capital region burial and funeral 
arrangements for 100 years. McGuire has served over 25,000 decedents 
from all walks of life, and has arranged services for many public 
figures and notable residents in the District and the world over.
  We appreciate the McGuire family's longstanding presence in the 
District and their continuing service to the families of our residents. 
The success of McGuire, Inc. can be attributed to always treating the 
families that call on them with dignity, honor, and respect, as well as 
to providing exemplary service to all.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask the House of Representatives to join me in 
celebrating the 100th anniversary of McGuire Funeral Service, Inc.
