  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I ask for the House's attention 
today to recognize Mrs. Annie Pearl Wall Godfrey, a 1945 graduate of 
East Highland High School which was located in Sylacauga, Alabama.
  Mrs. Godfrey was born to Celophus and Annie Marzel Wall in Nixburg, 
Alabama, on May 18, 1924. She was a part of the first graduating class 
of East Highland High School. She has been married to Rev. Eratus 
Godfrey for the past 56 years and is a member of New Beginning 
Ministries where her husband serves as the pastor.
  She is the mother of 10 children, three of which are deceased 
(Donald, Virgil and Gwendolyn) and three of whom are ordained ministers 
(Kenneth, DeForest, and Mary). She also helped raise the children of 
her late daughter. Mrs. Godfrey currently resides in Sylacuaga.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing Mrs. Annie Pearl Wall 
Godfrey as she celebrates her 70th anniversary of graduating from East 
Highland High School.
