                       Monday, September 27, 2021

  Mr. DUNN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Apalachicola native 
Ella Breedlove Speed, who is turning 101.
  Mrs. Ella is a pillar in her community and a role model for many. For 
more than two decades, she worked for the Franklin County School 
District as a bookkeeper. She also has served as a missionary in the 
Holiness Church of the Living God and is currently serving as an elder 
and bishop in the Love Center Church.
  Bishop Speed's heart for serving others is unmatched and her 
energetic spirit is infectious. Make no mistake, age is just a number. 
Mrs. Ella is still just as sharp as she was in her younger days and she 
has not stopped serving and comforting others.
  I want to personally thank this incredible woman for her contribution 
to Apalachicola and Florida's Second Congressional District as a whole. 
Happy birthday to Mrs. Ella.
