                       RECOGNIZING MS. MYRON WEBB

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. STEVEN M. PALAZZO

                             of mississippi

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 29, 2014

  Mr. PALAZZO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the hard work and 
unparalleled service of Ms. Myron Webb, a 28-year NASA veteran who 
devoted her time at the agency to Stennis Space Center, and was 
recently awarded the prestigious NASA Distinguished Service Medal.
  The Distinguished Service Medal is a rare honor, recognizing 
individuals who have made a profound and indelible impact on NASA 
mission success. Ms. Webb joins such luminaries as Neil Armstrong, 
James Webb, and John Glenn.
  Ms. Webb's profound commitment to Stennis, NASA, and her community 
are exemplified throughout her distinguished career and volunteer 
accomplishments. Among her incredible achievements, Ms. Webb is 
responsible for instituting viewing of the Space Shuttle Main Engine 
tests at Stennis, marketing and expanding Mississippi's Travel 
Attraction of the Year, the StennisSphere, and serving on the Board of 
Directors for both the Gulf Coast and Hancock County Chambers of 
Commerce.
  The success of Stennis Space Center is inseparable from the 
leadership and service of Myron Webb. Her extraordinary contributions 
to NASA and Mississippi deserve this highest recognition of the 
Distinguished Service Medal. Myron, on behalf of the United States 
Congress, I thank you for your remarkable contributions to our national 
space program.
