                        HON. FRANK PALLONE, JR.

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 21, 2014

  Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in commemoration of the life 
of former Bradley Beach Mayor Julie Schreck. Mayor Schreck passed away 
on May 4, 2014 after a life filled with numerous personal and 
professional accomplishments.
  Prior to serving as the first female mayor of Bradley Beach, Mayor 
Schreck worked in the corporate communications and training field for 
25 years. She began her career in public service as a councilwoman for 
the Borough of Bradley Beach. After four years as mayor, she became the 
Admissions Director at Voyagers' Community School, where her daughter 
is a student.
  During her tenure as mayor of Bradley Beach, Mayor Schreck promoted 
her interest in the environment and the arts. Her administration 
focused on sustainability, community-building and equity and supported 
an open and accountable government.
  The daughter of Pat and Ray Schreck, Mayor Schreck was born in New 
Haven, Connecticut on July 27, 1962. She was a scholar and an athlete 
in high school and college, graduating Fordham University with a 
Bachelor's degree in English. Mayor Schreck leaves behind a loving 
family, including her husband Joseph West and 8 year-old daughter Molly 
West, her parents and siblings Rachel Schreck, Kristina Ellis and Rich 
Schreck.
  Mr. Speaker, I sincerely hope that my colleagues will join me in 
honoring Mayor Schreck for her dedication to her family, leadership to 
the Bradley Beach community and her commitment to each endeavor she 
undertook.
