                   TRIBUTE TO BOBBI AND JIM WILLIAMS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 22, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Bobbi and Jim Williams of Greenfield, Iowa, for being 
selected as Adair County's 2016 inductees into the Iowa 4-H Hall of 
Fame.
  Bobbi Williams began her career in 4-H as a member of the Lee Blue 
Ribbons, the club her great-grandmother organized. She enjoyed home 
improvement and food and nutrition projects, but most wanted to show 
livestock. She joined the boys' 4-H club and began showing Hereford 
steers at the county and state fair. She was leader of her daughter's 
club, Adair County Wing Walkers, and was honored as a 4-H Alumna in 
2010.
  Jim Williams has volunteered with a number of 4-H committees and 
events throughout the years. He has been especially committed to the 
youth of Adair County, and has dedicated his time to Adair County 4-H 
Youth Action Committee. He promotes and supports youth activities by 
encouraging local businesses and individuals to provide whatever 
support they can.
  Mr. Speaker, Bobbi and Jim Williams' efforts embody the Iowa spirit 
and I am honored to represent them in the United States Congress. I ask 
that all of my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives 
join me in congratulating Bobbi and Jim for their achievements and wish 
them nothing but continued success.
