                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, June 25, 2021

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize a notable 
resident within my district, Victor Sorace of Boy Scouts of America 
Troop 168. Victor earned the rank of Eagle Scout in January of 2020, 
and I had the distinct pleasure of attending his Eagle Scout Court of 
Honor. Victor's Eagle Scout Service Project consisted of building a 
memorial in honor of our community's armed forces service members, 
police officers, firefighters, and first responders. The memorial was 
built in Falls Township Park and stands as a constant reminder of the 
sacrifices those in our community and throughout our nation make every 
single day.
  Recently, Victor was recognized as the American Legion's Eagle Scout 
of the Year for the entire state of Pennsylvania. As an Eagle Scout 
myself, I can attest to the fact that this is no light achievement. To 
be the Eagle Scout of the Year requires a lot of dedication, hard work, 
and community service. Victor excelled in all of these aspects as he 
truly is an individual who is guided by a sense to better his community 
and has demonstrated an extraordinary ability to overcome complex 
challenges and situations throughout the years. We are incredibly 
grateful for the positive impact that he has on our community.
