                        Wednesday, May 18, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Doris 
Gibson, of Kellerton, Iowa, on the celebration of her 101st birthday.
  Our world has changed a great deal during the course of Doris'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. Doris has 
lived through seventeen United States Presidents and twenty-one 
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. Gibson in the United 
States Congress and it is my pleasure to wish her a very happy 101st 
birthday. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Doris for reaching this 
incredible milestone and in wishing her nothing but the best.

                          ____________________
