                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 29, 2015

  Mr. MARCHANT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Fred and 
Betty Williams, of Carrollton, Texas on achieving this incredible 
milestone of 70 years of marriage on August 30th, 2015.
  While Fred and Betty both grew up in east Texas, they moved to 
Carrollton after retiring and reside there today. As long time members 
of the Nazarene Church, serving on the church board and in missions, 
they are beloved members of the community and strong role models. It is 
an honor to be able to call them my constituents and friends.
  In their successful marriage, Fred and Betty have been blessed with a 
family of three children, eleven grandchildren, and fourteen great-
grandchildren. It is my sincere hope that their family may gain much 
joy and wisdom from Fred and Betty's wonderful journey together. May 
their lives and inspiring story pass down through generations to come.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the 24th Congressional District of Texas, I 
ask all my distinguished colleagues to join me in congratulating Fred 
and Betty Williams on their prosperous 70th wedding anniversary.

                          ____________________
