                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, September 4, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Vic Noer, of Bedford, Iowa for being awarded the Volunteer 
of the Year Award from the Bedford Area Chamber.
  Vic has lived in Bedford for 52 years where he has worked as a house 
painter and ran a movie theatre. He has welcomed local kids to play 
basketball on his ``green court'' while teaching them skills and 
helping them learn about the game. He served on the Bibbins Park Board 
for 30 years while also being active on the library, museum, and 
Hospice of Central Iowa boards. He spent many years as the camp 
director for the Western Iowa Chapter for Muscular Dystrophy and is 
still very active with the Bedford Iowa Lions Club.
  Mr. Speaker, the examples set by Vic demonstrate the rewards of 
harnessing one's talents and sharing them with the world. His efforts 
embody the Iowa spirit and I am honored to represent him and 
constituents like him, in the United States Congress. I know all of my 
colleagues in the United States House of Representatives will join me 
in congratulating Vic Noer for his achievement and wish him nothing but 
continued success.
