                      IN RECOGNITION OF RUTH HYMAN

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. FRANK PALLONE, JR.

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, November 18, 2019

  Mr. PALLONE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ms. Ruth Hyman 
as she celebrates her 100th birthday this year. It is my honor to join 
with her family and friends in marking this incredible milestone and 
wishing her many more years of health and happiness.
  A lifelong resident of Long Branch, New Jersey, Ms. Hyman was the 
youngest of eight children. Her parents, Ida and David Hyman, were 
founding members of Congregation Brothers of Israel and instilled in 
their children the importance of hard work and community service. 
Throughout her life, Ms. Hyman has striven to be an active and 
charitable member of her community, supporting Congregation Brothers of 
Israel, the Visiting Nurse Association Health Group, and Jewish and 
Family Children's Services, among many others. In addition, Ms. Hyman 
established and operated a long-running women's apparel business and 
worked as an editor of technical manuals for the federal government. 
Her involvement with numerous local charities and organizations reflect 
her passion to help others and improve our communities and her success 
and accomplishments serve as an example of what hard work can attain.
  Madam Speaker, I sincerely hope that my colleagues will join me in 
honoring Ms. Ruth Hyman as she celebrates her 100th birthday. Her 
generous spirit and impact on the community continue to be felt 
throughout Monmouth County and New Jersey.
