  Mr. MEEHAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 76 years of 
service that Calvin Greene has given to Bart Township in Lancaster 
County, Pennsylvania.
   Calvin has lived his entire life in Bart Township, having grown up 
on a farm that has belonged to his family since 1832. He spent his 
career doing what he loved: farming. He ran his farm as a dairy farm, 
milking cows until 1997 before crop farming. He retired in 2008. 
Calvin's farm won the 2014 Conservation Award from the Lancaster County 
Conservation District in recognition of his farm's commitment to 
preserving our environment.
   Calvin has been a dedicated servant of his community, serving on the 
Bart Township

Planning Commission and the township's Zoning Hearing Board. He has 
served as a Bart Township Supervisor since 1988.
   Calvin has three children, six grandchildren and one great 
grandchild with his wife Valeria. He's a life-long member of the Middle 
Octorara Presbyterian Church, where he's taught Sunday School.
   Mr. Speaker, I wish to thank Calvin Greene for his leadership for 
his community and nation.
