      CONGRATULATING MARILYN DANIS FOR RECEIVING THE 2018 GREATER 
                   FAYETTEVILLE CHAMBER ATHENA AWARD

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. RICHARD HUDSON

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 23, 2018

  Mr. HUDSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Marilyn Danis as 
the recipient of the 2018 Greater Fayetteville Chamber Athena Award.
  The Athena Award is presented to the man or woman who has contributed 
to the support and success of professional women in the greater 
Fayetteville region. Marilyn has demonstrated her passion for the 
advancement of professional women throughout her career in the real 
estate and mortgage industry, along with her commitment to numerous 
community service programs. As the former owner and broker of a Century 
21 real estate franchise, Marilyn mentored her female employees--
primarily military wives--as they honed their skills in the industry. 
Currently, Marilyn is the owner of Residential Mortgage Corp., the 
longest locally-owned mortgage lender in Fayetteville.
  Over the years, Marilyn has been a tireless advocate for local 
programs which support furthering the careers of women. As a sponsor of 
the InnovateHER Project, she helped put together a competition which 
gives local women the venue to showcase the services and products that 
can empower women and their families.
  Marilyn is deserving of this award, and I wish her success as she 
continues to advance not only her own career, but those of other women 
in our community.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me today in celebrating Marilyn Danis on 
winning the 2018 Greater Fayetteville Chamber Athena Award.
