                      Wednesday, November 12, 2014

  Mr. GERLACH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Lionville Natural 
Pharmacy of Chester County, Pennsylvania on the occasion of its 35th 
Anniversary.
  After graduating from Philadelphia College of Pharmacy in 1973, Ben 
Briggs, RPh, CNC, IACP, began his career as a retail pharmacist and 
founded Lionville Pharmacy in 1979. While the store was originally 
located in the Medical Arts Building on Route 100, it moved in 1987 to 
a larger location on Route 113 and Whitford Road, and then finally to 
its current location in 1992 at Route 113 and Gordon Drive. In 1996, 
the store was renamed Lionville Natural Pharmacy and Health Food Store. 
In 1999, upon his graduation from the University of the Sciences in 
Philadelphia, Ben's son, Michael, Pharm.D., CNC, also joined the 
practice.
  Over the years, Lionville Natural Pharmacy added a compounding 
pharmacy lab and a holistic health center offering therapeutic massage, 
acupuncture, shiatsu, and more. Throughout its long and storied 
history, Lionville Natural Pharmacy has been featured in numerous 
newspaper and magazine articles, including Best of the Main Line in 
Main Line Today from 2006 to 2014.
  Mr. Speaker, in recognition of its 35 years of faithful service to 
its patients and customers, along with its outstanding history of 
commitment to the life and health of the Chester County community and 
its citizens, I ask my colleagues to join me today in recognizing 
Lionville Natural Pharmacy of Chester County, Pennsylvania on the 
occasion of its 35th Anniversary.
