                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 1, 2014

  Mr. BARLETTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Morton and Alyce 
Spector who are being honored at the 2014 Susquehanna Tzedakah Society 
Dinner for their devotion to bettering the Jewish community of 
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
  Mr. and Mrs. Spector have committed their lives to improving the 
community for their friends and neighbors. Mrs. Spector, a former 
teacher and executive director of the National Kidney Foundation of 
Central PA, and Mr. Spector, a founder of D&H Distributors and current 
co-owner of Design Kitchens and Appliances, have worked with dozens of 
boards and organizations across the Harrisburg region and are known by 
all for their ``can do'' attitude and willingness to lend a hand 
whenever it's needed. The Spectors credit their parents as their role 
models, instilling in them the importance of charitable efforts from an 
early age. Today, they themselves have become role models and are 
credited with raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Jewish 
community.
  Mr. Speaker, tonight as the Harrisburg community honors the Spectors 
at the 2014 Susquehanna Tzedakah Society Dinner, I join in thanking 
them for their outstanding commitment to bettering the Jewish 
community, and I commend them and their families for their hard work 
and dedication.
