                 HONORING STANLEY, THE ENGLISH BULLDOG

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. SAM GRAVES

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 3, 2017

  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Stanley, an English Bulldog in my district, who has become an 
inspiration to many of my constituents and continues to serve his 
community.
   Stanley was born with a bilateral cleft lip, requiring the need for 
surgery to tooth problems and holes in his sinus passages. The 
community came together and raised the funds for the surgery. Now, 
Stanley goes to schools and community events and has become a source of 
inspiration for kids with his anti-bullying message. Stanley has also 
recently joined with the American Childhood Cancer Organization to form 
the first local chapter of the Founding Hope program, helping to raise 
funds and awareness to help children with cancer get the support they 
need.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Stanley and 
the Pack family for their continuing service to their community, and 
for serving as an inspiration for children who face bullying and cancer 
diagnoses.
