                       Monday, September 19, 2016

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate GAM Graphics 
and Marketing in Sterling, Virginia who celebrated their 40th 
anniversary this July. Opened by Charles Grant in 1976, GAM Graphics 
and Marketing provides quality printing and commercial services to 
countless citizens throughout our great Commonwealth.
  GAM was founded in the 1970s with the mission of teaching marketable 
job skills to students. Originally the printing was done by the 
students, mainly serving churches and mission groups; however 
commercial requests started in 1976. Within five years GAM was 
producing print products ranging from business cards to full-bound 
books and bulk mailings. GAM is a company run with compassion and a 
focus on providing excellent quality and service to their clients. In 
1985, Nathaniel Grant took the reins at GAM and with his leadership the 
company continued to grow. Nathaniel and his sister Faith purchased the 
company from their parents in 1996. Under the guidance of Nathaniel and 
Faith, GAM modernized and the company continued to grow without any 
adverse effect on their excellent quality and service.
  In closing Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in sending 
our most sincere appreciation to a company that has given so much to 
their neighbors. The Grant Family and the staff of GAM Graphics and 
Marketing serve as an example to all. On behalf of Virginia's 10th 
Congressional District I wish them continued success in the future.
