                 CELEBRATING THE BIRTHDAY OF ROSE BAYUK

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Minnesota (Mr. Stauber) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. STAUBER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to wish happy birthday to Rose 
Bayuk, who turns 105 on November 2. Rose served as a nurse during World 
War II and dedicated much of her life to caring for others.
  She grew up in Buhl, Minnesota. In 1938, Rose graduated from Khaler 
School of Nursing in Rochester, Minnesota. Her diploma was signed and 
presented to her by the famous Mayo brothers themselves.
  Upon graduating, she moved to California to begin her career. Shortly 
after moving, Pearl Harbor was attacked, and Rose decided to serve her 
country by enlisting in the Army Nurse Corps.
  During the war, Rose made several crossings across the Atlantic on an 
English ocean liner, bringing home wounded from Italy, France, and 
North Africa.
  After her service, Rose continued a life of service by becoming a 
school nurse, and eventually the head of a nursing home.
  Rose now lives in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, where she stays active 
by going to the gym and playing bridge.
  Rose, thank you for your incredible service to our country, and I 
wish you the happiest of birthdays.


                   Celebrating Lifestone Health Care

  Mr. STAUBER. Mr. Speaker, during National Small Business Week, I rise 
to honor Dr. Chiamaka Enemuoh, the owner of Lifestone Health Care, a 
business located in Proctor, Minnesota, that is dedicated to providing 
compassionate and reliable medical care for clients in a home-like 
setting.
  Lifestone opened in 2014 as a 2,000-foot house with five employees. 
Thanks to the strong leadership of its owner, Dr. Enemuoh, Lifestone 
staff and capacity doubled by 2016, allowing them to serve more in the 
community. In addition to her work at Lifestone, Dr. Enemuoh enjoys 
serving as a mentor to young African-American women in the community 
and volunteers much of her time at organizations like the Duluth Area 
Chamber of Commerce and African Women's Group.
  Due to the valuable services this business provides to the Northland 
and the dedication of Dr. Enemuoh, the Small Business Association 
recently named Lifestone Health Care as the 2020 Minnesota Minority-
Owned Small Business of the Year.
  Thank you to Dr. Enemuoh and the entire staff at Lifestone Health 
Care for providing excellent healthcare to the residents of Minnesota's 
Eighth Congressional District. Your commitment to our community serves 
as an inspiration to all.
  Mr. Speaker, entrepreneurs like Dr. Enemuoh are absolutely invaluable 
to our society. And as we continue to celebrate Small Business Week, we 
must also reinforce our commitment to empowering entrepreneurs like Dr. 
Enemuoh who create jobs, provide valuable services, and help drive our 
economy.
