  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, a small business in Yardley, Bucks 
County, Pennsylvania has provided plants and flowers to local and 
regional customers for over 100 years. On September 27, 2014 its doors 
will open for a special anniversary celebration. Ye Olde Yardley 
Florist on South Main Street is truly an example of ``small business,'' 
the very backbone of our economy. Due to their experience, effort and 
knowledge, the Yardley floral and gift shop has thrived. Community 
leaders and citizens will join owner Susan Gorka for a celebration to 
acknowledge the quality and service the store has provided, while 
retaining the tradition of good business they have come to expect. 
Congratulations on this milestone and may Ye Olde Yardley Florist have 
many more years of continued success, bringing beauty and joy to its 
friends and customers.
