                         Friday, July 28, 2017

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Jean and Wendell Volkens of Council Bluffs, Iowa on the 
very special occasion of their 60th wedding anniversary. They were 
married on June 16, 1957 at Zion Lutheran Church in Auburn, Iowa.
  Jean and Wendell's lifelong commitment to each other and their family 
truly embodies Iowa values. As they reflect on their 60th anniversary, 
may their commitment grow even stronger, as they continue to love, 
cherish, and honor one another for many years to come.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend this great couple on their 50th year together, 
and I wish them many more. I ask that my colleagues in the United 
States House of Representatives join me in congratulating them on this 
momentous occasion.
