                     Wednesday, September 16, 2015

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Florence Nolte on the celebration of her 100th birthday. 
Ms. Nolte celebrated her 100th birthday on July 17th, 2015 in Stuart, 
Iowa.
  Our world has changed a great deal during the course of Ms. Nolte's 
life. Since her birth, we have revolutionized air travel and walked on 
the moon. We have invented the television, cellular phones, and the 
internet. We have fought in wars overseas, seen the rise and fall of 
Soviet Communism and witnessed the birth of new democracies. Ms. Nolte 
has lived through seventeen United States Presidents and twenty-four 
Governors of Iowa. In her lifetime, the population of the United States 
has more than tripled.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to represent Ms. Nolte in the United 
States Congress and it is my pleasure to wish her a very happy 100th 
birthday. I invite my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives to join me in congratulating Ms. Nolte on reaching this 
incredible milestone, and wishing her continued health and happiness in 
the years to come.
