                RECOGNIZING DEVERAUX AND KRISTIE HUBBARD

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. CHERI BUSTOS

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, July 3, 2014

  Mrs. BUSTOS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the achievements 
and community work of Deveraux and Kristie Hubbard, of Peoria, IL.
   Deveraux and his wife Kristie have been and continue to be 
invaluable members of their community, and for their hard work and 
dedication, they have fittingly been honored at the annual Boy Scouts 
of America, W. D. Boyce Council, Whitney M. Young reception on June 29, 
2014.
   Extremely active throughout their communities in other capacities, 
Deveraux and Kristie have prioritized their work with our local youth 
and their dedication to the local Boy Scout troop is to be admired.
   The Boy Scouts of America is one of the nation's largest and most 
prominent values-based youth development organizations. Scouting is 
unique and provides young men with opportunities and structure they may 
otherwise never experience.
   Mr. Speaker, I'd like to thank the Hubbard family for their years of 
dedicated service to the greater Peoria community. They have truly been 
a catalyst for change and growth in the community. I am delighted to 
recognize their achievements and pleased to know they are not alone in 
their dedication to our youth and community development.
