  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, today I want to celebrate the memory of 
Greg Mudge, a longtime community member and business owner in Detroit, 
Michigan, who we tragically lost last year.
  Greg was a beloved member of our community, and his sudden death was 
a shock to us all. When he first opened Mudgie's Deli under his 
ownership back in 2008, Greg was already a member of the community. A 
food service veteran, he built and managed his own business with the 
heart and soul of family. His approach was ``all hands on deck,'' and 
he never shied away from any task and always gave a helping hand to any 
of his team.
  Greg was a deli sandwich craftsman committed to serving high-quality 
food. Many of his menu offerings were made from scratch. He 
incorporated family recipes, like his grandmother's meatloaf, into his 
menu items. The homemade food made Mudgie's Deli a neighborhood 
standout. More than that, Greg's enthusiasm and passion for his work 
shined through in all that he did.
  Always greeting guests with a warm smile, Greg Mudge embodied the 
spirit of our southwest Detroit neighborhoods. Please join me in 
honoring his memory.
