     HONORING UPS FOR ITS COMMITMENT TO SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND 
  RECOGNIZING THE EXCELLENCE OF 20 NORTHBROOK CIRCLE OF HONOR DRIVERS

                                 ______
                                 

                       HON. BRADLEY S. SCHNEIDER

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, September 30, 2013

  Mr. SCHNEIDER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Northbrook UPS 
for its outstanding commitment to community service, to recognize the 
incredible safety records of 20 Circle of Honor drivers and to 
congratulate UPS on 106 years of business excellence.
   What started as a small-time messenger service has grown into one of 
the world's most recognizable companies. Over the years, UPS has 
revolutionized the way we all do business and connected every corner of 
the world in ways we never thought possible. After 106 years of 
excellence, I look forward to what will come next.
   At the local level, UPS has demonstrated a strong commitment to 
improving the community. In Illinois, UPS employees have logged more 
than 26,000 volunteer hours, and 1,800 of those were performed by 
employees from my district, Mr. Speaker. Beyond this dedication to 
community service, UPS employees are also committed to keeping our 
community safe.
   With drivers on the road and pilots in the air every day, UPS has 
made safety paramount. In Northbrook, 20 drivers have qualified for the 
Circle of Honor, meaning 25 accident-free years on the road. This is an 
exemplary record, and I would like to honor the following drivers for 
achieving this mark:
   John Hayes; Donald Babo; Brian Behm; Douglas Caldwell; Phillip 
Guido; Henry Sielck; Randall Kaufman; Steve Makowski; Will Woodfork 
JR.; Joseph Nowik; Steven Kass SR.; Douglas Soriano; Stephen Mann; 
James Twarowski; John Hill; Timothy Schwellenbach; John Truska; Richard 
Forney; Neil McGreevy; Robert Janiak.
   Mr. Speaker, I want to congratulate these drivers and thank UPS for 
its outstanding community service and leadership.
