  Mr. CALVERT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and pay tribute to an 
individual whose commitment to the Corona, California community is 
truly exceptional. Next week, on January 21, 2016, Herb Spiegel will be 
honored as a recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Corona 
Chamber of Commerce. Herb has dedicated himself to the Corona 
community.
  Herb has been a citizen of Corona, California since 1958. His 
company, Corona Industrial Electric, Inc. is a fixture in the business 
community and was operated by Herb for 36 years. Herb retired in 1994, 
after receiving numerous awards and recognitions in the electrical 
contracting industry, and became actively immersed in the local 
community.
  Wanting to give back and stay involved, Herb has been involved in 
numerous committees, clubs and organizations. Herb has remained active 
with the Corona Chamber of Commerce for 57 consecutive years. He has 
been involved as an active member of the Corona Host Lions for over 50 
years, serving on the Board and in many other capacities. He is a 
member of the Corona Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. He has 
been a member of the Masonic Lodge over 60 years; and an active member 
of Congregation Beth Shalom of Corona. Herb has also been active in 
philanthropy, community outreach, and local non-profits for years 
including Corona Public Library, Corona Norco Unified School District, 
and as longtime judge for History Day.
  Herb's tireless passion for his family, community service and giving 
back has contributed immensely to the betterment of the community of 
Corona, California. I am proud to call Herb a close friend, fellow 
community member and great American. Today, I add my voice to the many 
who will be congratulating Herb on achieving the Lifetime Achievement 
Award.
