  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, neighborhoods are strengthened by civic-
minded individuals who give their time, energy, and talents to making 
the community a better place. In Scarsdale, no one has better 
exemplified that commitment to community involvement than Beverley 
Sved.
  Beverley has had a long, distinguished record of service to 
Scarsdale. Among her many volunteer roles in the community, she has 
served as the Mayor of Scarsdale, and prior to that she served as 
Village Trustee. Beverley chaired the Village Finance Committee and the 
Planning Board, both challenging positions that she filled skillfully 
with deft leadership. Beverley could bring the community together to 
resolve difficult issues, something all good elected officials must be 
adept at doing.
  Further, Beverley has been a leader Committee. These are only some of 
the highlights of what this highly respected, trusted, insightful and 
collaborative community leader has contributed to Scarsdale. Beverley's 
selfless contribution of time and energy to community affairs 
epitomizes what it means to be a leader.
  This year, the Scarsdale Bowl, which for over 70 years has recognized 
community members who have ``given unselfishly of time, energy, and 
effort to the civic welfare of the community,'' is honoring Beverley 
Sved at their annual awards dinner on April 25th. They could not have 
chosen a more deserving honoree. As Congressman representing Scarsdale, 
I want to take this opportunity to congratulate Beverley on this 
wonderful honor and to thank her for all she has done to better the 
community. Her tremendous work is evident all throughout Scarsdale and 
I am honored to have such a great partner in the community.
