                            PARADE COMMITTEE

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. BARBARA COMSTOCK

                              of virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, December 1, 2016

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate Robin Perkins on 
being named Woman of the Year by the Greater Manassas Christmas Parade 
Committee. Mrs. Perkins has diligently served the Manassas community 
for many years and is more than deserving of this honor.
  A lifelong resident of Manassas and devoted community leader, Mrs. 
Perkins has served her hometown for 33 years in the City of Manassas 
treasurer's office. After fifteen years of service in that office, she 
was elected to serve as Treasurer for the City of Manassas. Now, after 
over eighteen years of service as Treasurer, Mrs. Perkins is entering 
into a well-deserved retirement.
  Though she is leaving her post as Treasurer, Mrs. Perkins will remain 
a fixture of the Manassas community. She serves as a scout leader, a 
youth bowling director, and has been a long-time volunteer with the 
city schools. Her lifelong dedication to her community is an 
inspiration and I'm proud to represent such a wonderful woman.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in congratulating Robin 
Perkins for being named Woman of the Year by the Greater Manassas 
Christmas Parade Committee. It is a privilege to represent her and I 
wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
