                         Friday, July 27, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Ms. Wyona Williams on the occasion of her 100th birthday.
  Our world has changed a great deal during Wyona's life. Since her 
birth, we have revolutionized air travel and walked on the moon. We 
have invented the television, cellular phones and the internet. We have 
fought in wars overseas, seen the rise and fall of Soviet communism and 
witnessed the birth of new democracies. Wyona has lived through 
eighteen United States Presidents and twenty-two Governors of Iowa. In 
her lifetime, the population of the United States has more than 
tripled.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to represent Ms. Williams in the United 
States Congress and it is my pleasure to wish her a very happy 100th 
birthday. I invite my colleagues in the House of Representatives to 
join me in congratulating Wyona Williams on reaching this incredible 
milestone, and wishing her even more health and happiness in the years 
to come.
