  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor two members of the Northeast 
Jewish Center Community who this year are being honored at the Center's 
Annual Event, Michael and Leslie Tugetman.
  Michael is a talented musician, singer, songwriter as well as a 
family health physician who owns an urgent care practice. He performs 
in a Jewish music/Rock cover band, MIDlife with other physicians, 
lawyers, accountants, Real Estate executives and other professionals.
  For most of her career, Leslie was a corporate interiors renovation 
project manager. For the past 11 years she was the office manager of a 
busy physician's office. These days she offsets her time by helping 
with administrative duties in Michael's practice. Leslie has been known 
to aid friends and family with interior design issues in their homes or 
offices.
  Michael and Leslie are the proud parents of two wonderful children, 
Graham and Jessica. Graham, married to Alana, teaches the next 
generation of Jewish children in Toronto, and is a tremendously gifted 
drummer. They are the parents of two charming sons, Yonaton and Asher. 
Dr. Jessica, married to Dr. Noah, are busy training in Pediatrics and 
Surgery, respectively.
  Michael and Leslie both have a terrific sense of humor and share a 
deep love for their community. The Northeast Jewish Center has made a 
terrific choice in honoring them with a Special Service Award at this 
year's Annual Event. Congratulations to them both on receiving this 
wonderful honor and I want to also thank them for their service to the 
community.
