                        Thursday, April 1, 2021

  Mrs. WALORSKI. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Geraldine 
O'Mara who will celebrate the milestone of her 95th birthday on April 
4, 2021.
  A New Yorker through and through, Geraldine was born in Queens and 
grew up in Sag Harbor and Steward Manor. One of 12 brothers and 
sisters, Geraldine has always held family as a guiding light and source 
of strength. Geraldine was married to the late Thomas J. O'Mara, a 
World War II veteran, and together they had three children, Sharon, 
James, and Michael. She has dedicated her life to being a role model 
for her children and giving them every opportunity to learn, grow, and 
find the path to success.
  Coming from a large family, one of Geraldine's greatest blessings in 
life is spending time with her seven grandchildren and seven great-
grandchildren. To this day, she enjoys reading scripture and tending to 
her garden, and is known for giving back to those in need and lifting 
others up with her strength.
  Madam Speaker, people like Geraldine make our country a better place, 
and I ask my colleagues to join me in wishing her good health and many 
more birthdays.
