enterprise system and the importance of higher education, community 
service, and the vision and determination to achieve a better future. 
These are the ideals that serve as Fred's North Star.
  Throughout his career, Fred has exemplified the best of American 
exceptionalism. In addition to his time in the private sector, Fred has 
spent decades giving back to his community, whether through his time as 
the chairman of the Inova Health System Foundation or through his 
participation on the board of the Wolf Trap Foundation for the 
Performing Arts. Additionally, and one of my personal favorites, Fred 
is a recipient of the Loudoun Laurels award and the Loudon County Boy 
Scouts' Good Scout award.
  I would also like to congratulate his wife Karen for her 
contributions to these causes over the decades. I know firsthand how 
important a supportive partner like Karen can be, and I am so pleased 
that you both are recognized in such an appropriate manner for your 
efforts.
  Congratulations.
