  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I ask for the House's attention 
today to honor Mrs. Mary Ann Knight on her 110th birthday.
  Mrs. Knight was born October 3rd, 1903 in Camphill, Alabama to Mr. 
Robert Lee Trimble and Mrs. Emmaline G. Trimble. She was the fourth 
born of nine children, five girls and four boys. Mrs. Knight has lived 
in Alabama, Indiana, Tennessee and Florida during her lifetime.
  Throughout her life, Mary Ann has taught everyone she meets the 
importance of hard work. She has continued to work around her house and 
church, the St. James A.M.E. Church in Goodwater, Alabama.
  On October the 6th, St. James A.M.E. Church Family will be holding a 
celebration for Mrs. Knight during their church service. They will 
recognize her dedication to her family, friends, community and church.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in celebrating Mrs. Mary Ann Knight's 
110th birthday. 110 years is quite a milestone, and I am honored today 
to help pay recognition to it.
