  Ms. HAHN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the life and 
legacy of Frankie Powell Neal.
  Frankie was a loving woman and a devout Christian. She was dedicated 
to serving others in all aspects of her life. For over 30 years, she 
cared for our veterans as a nurse at the Long Beach Veterans Hospital 
and Harbor UCLA Medical Center. Frankie was also the matriarch of a 
great family that includes three children, eight grandchildren, and ten 
great grandchildren.
  I have the distinguished honor of having a strong relationship with 
her son, Long Beach City Councilman Steve Neal. I know that she would 
be proud of his achievements and service to the great residents of the 
community in which he serves.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that all members of the House join me in a moment 
of silence to commemorate the life of Frankie Powell Neal.
