                          HON. ELIOT L. ENGEL

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, June 9, 2014

  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, I would like to formally recognize Lisa and 
Rob Patchen for their outstanding service and commitment to Beth El 
Synagogue in New Rochelle, New York.
  Lisa is a past member of the Nursery School Board and, for several 
years, has led the synagogue's handprint tile fundraiser, the success 
of which is evident outside the Nursery School office.
  Rob is in his second term as a member of the Board of Trustees, and 
just recently completed a two-year term as recording secretary. He has 
also served as the chairman of the Assistant Rabbi Search Committee, 
the Nominating Committee, Hazzan Search Committee, and is currently an 
active member of the Families Initiative Committee and the Youth 
Services Committee.
  The pair will be honored by Beth El with the President's Ne'emanim 
Service Award for all they have done to support and serve their local 
Jewish community.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Lisa and Rob Patchen 
for their service and commitment to Beth El Synagogue.

                          ____________________
