  Mr. FRANCIS ROONEY of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to wish 
Michel Doherty a Happy 94th Birthday and to honor her for a lifetime of 
community service.
  Mrs. Doherty is well-known in our community for her extensive service 
through the countless organizations she participates in. The two 
projects that bring her the most pride have been the development of 
Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve and the opening of the Veterans 
Administration Clinic in Cape Coral, but these are only a few examples 
of all the contributions she has made to the Cape Coral community.
  Mrs. Doherty also participates as a member of the Cape Coral Civic 
Association, Fort Myers Women's Community Club, Tiger Bay Club of SWFL, 
chair of the American Red Cross ``Simply Red Gala,'' Voices for Kids, 
Lee County Homeless Coalition, Giving Heart for Cancer, Abuse Center 
for Women, Downtown River District Art Walks, Boys and Girls Club of 
SWFL, Hope Hospice Planning Committee and Pace Center for Girls. There 
is no doubt that her work will positively impact our community for 
generations to come.
  I thank Michel for her service to the Cape Coral community and wish 
her a Happy Birthday.
