  Mr. MOOLENAAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Bill 
Tencza, upon his retirement as the President of the Cadillac Area 
Chamber of Commerce.
  Bill became the President of the Cadillac Area Chamber of Commerce in 
2000. Over the years Mr. Tencza has been a champion in furthering 
industry and education in Cadillac. He has played a vital role in the 
formation of the Business Expo and the LEAD meetings, along with 
fostering relationships between those in business and education.
  Mr. Tencza remains very active in the community and has served as a 
judge for the Congressional App Challenge from our district. He also 
works with the Northern Michigan Chamber Alliance, Cadillac Industrial 
Fund and the Cadillac Area Industrial Group.
  After 16 years as the President of the Cadillac Area Chamber of 
Commerce, Bill has left a legacy of hard work and dedication to the 
community of Cadillac.
  On behalf of the Fourth Congressional District of Michigan, I am 
honored today to extend my gratitude to Bill Tencza for his many years 
of hard work and service in the Cadillac Area Chamber of Commerce, and 
wish him a happy and healthful retirement.
