                       Tuesday, February 27, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Darlene and Donald Wimmer. They were awarded the 49th 
Annual Community Christmas Candle in December 2017 at the Afton 
Methodist Church.
  Service to their community and their church began over 70 years ago. 
Donald has served as a key leader at the Arispe Methodist Church for 
years and has served on the Food for Life committee. Darlene taught 
Bible and Sunday school for many years while Donald also outfitted his 
barn so Arispe kids had a place to play basketball. They have both also 
volunteered their time at Greater Regional Medical Center and with 
hospice.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Darlene and Donald for 
receiving this award and I am proud to represent them in the United 
States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Darlene and Donald and in 
wishing them both nothing but the best.
