                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 15, 2020

  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor and thank 
Susan Davis for over 12 years of dedicated service to her community as 
Executive Director of the Rainer Chamber of Commerce.
  Susan provided an invaluable service to South Seattle over the last 
12 years as the Executive Director of the Rainer Chamber of Commerce. 
She always saw the potential in the region and worked tirelessly to 
celebrate diversity and bring economic prosperity. Although not 
originally from Washington, Susan became a heartbeat of her community.
  There are few who have had a stronger dedication to South Seattle. 
Susan focused on improving education, economic development, and public 
safety. During her time as Executive Director she produced festivals 
and parades for the community, helped create the Southeast Seattle Map 
and Guide, and hosted extraordinary guests at the Chamber luncheons. 
Her enthusiasm and kind spirit allowed her to connect and make friends 
with nearly anyone.
  Susan's genuine passion for giving back did not go unnoticed--and 
still does not. Even though Susan is no longer with the Chamber of 
Commerce, she is still working on projects in the neighborhood and 
looking for ways to contribute to her community.
  The entire community will miss Susan's presence in this role, but she 
has created a legacy and we will continue to see the benefits of what 
she accomplished for many years to come.
  Madam Speaker, it is with great respect and admiration I honor Susan 
Davis on her outstanding career as Executive Director of the Rainer 
Chamber of Commerce and the lasting impression she made on her 
community.
