  Mr. FINCHER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Lillie Kay 
Mitchell on being named the 2016 Germantown, Tennessee Lions Club 
Citizen of the Year. This award is indeed a fitting tribute for all the 
time and sacrifice that Ms. Mitchell has made on behalf of the people 
of Germantown and all of Shelby County, Tennessee.
   After graduating from Leadership Germantown in 2004, Ms. Mitchell 
has become an active member of the Alumni Association, including 
serving as the organization's secretary in 2010. She has spearheaded 
multiple projects including the annual Neighborhood Association 
Seminar, thus putting her experience of founding the Neshoba North 
Neighborhood Association to practical use for the betterment of our 
community.
   For the last 10 years, Ms. Mitchell has been a member of Germantown 
Public Safety Education Commission, including serving as Chair

for five years. Along with completing both her CPR and CERT training, 
she launched Germantown's Safety City while volunteering in that 
capacity. Ms. Mitchell is also an energetic leader in the annual 
Germantown Charity Horse Show, her church, Germantown United Methodist 
Church, and many more philanthropic endeavors.
   Indeed, the Germantown Lions Club could not have made a better 
selection for their Citizen of the Year than Ms. Lillie Kay Mitchell. 
On behalf of Tennessee's 8th Congressional District, I would like to 
congratulate Ms. Mitchell and wish her the best of luck in the future.
