  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize a staple of 
my district, Altomonte's Italian Market and Deli. Altomonte's was 
originally founded as Mike's Meat Shop in 1971 by 2 Italian immigrants, 
Mike and Frances Grispino. In honor of their Italian hometown, 
Altomonte, they elected to change the name of the establishment to 
Altomonte's. Through much commitment and hard work, this family owned 
business has grown from a small butcher shop to a full-scale market and 
deli with 2 locations in Bucks County.
  Altomonte's prides themselves in having a friendly, hard-working, and 
knowledgeable staff. In addition to serving fine Italian cuisine, 
Altomonte's plays an active role enriching the community they live in. 
As our Nation continues to deal with the realities of COVID-19, they 
have been a shining example for both customer and employee safety. This 
year, 2021, Altomonte's will celebrate its 50th anniversary. We are 
extremely grateful for the impact Altomonte's has had on our community.
