             HONORING THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF NICOLE ANN CLARK

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. BARBARA COMSTOCK

                              of virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 7, 2018

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ms. Nicole Ann 
Clark for her strength and perseverance as a breast cancer survivor, as 
well as the dedication she has displayed by continuing to aid in the 
fight against breast cancer.
  She is a testament to the fact that hope exists for all cancer 
patients and their loved ones. Nicole's doctor found a tumor during a 
routine breast exam a little over five years ago. This was the 
beginning of a tough journey for her and her husband, guided by faith 
and support from family and friends.
  With the recent news of a local breast cancer walk discontinuing, 
Nicole wanted to start an event to help women with Breast Cancer and 
give women a reason for continuing to exercise and stay healthy. Thus 
emerged Walk 4 Mountains, an inaugural event to give peace and comfort 
to women.
  Walk 4 Mountains was held this past Saturday, May 5, 2018, with all 
proceeds benefiting the Loudoun Breast Health Network, Step Sister's 
and the Local Chapter of the American Cancer Society which will help to 
pay bills and take care of everyday activities for women diagnosed with 
breast cancer.
  I sincerely thank her for her efforts in this fight. She is an 
inspiration to men and women everywhere, and her actions are truly 
honorable. With the establishment of this event, Ms. Clark's 
achievements and leadership will continue to strengthen the fight 
against breast cancer now and in the future.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in recognizing Ms. 
Nicole Clark's loyal and dedicated service in spreading awareness and 
funding for the fight against breast cancer. On behalf of Virginia's 
10th District, I wish Ms. Nicole Clark all the best in her future 
endeavors.
