                       Tuesday, February 28, 2023

  Ms. LEE of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor one of my 
constituents, Ms. Helen Mulrennan Young of Brandon, Florida, who turned 
100 years old on February 27, 2023.
  Ms. Young is the youngest sibling of the Mulrennan pioneering family, 
whose roots in Eastern Hillsborough County date back more than 140 
years.
  Carrying on her family's legacy of service, Ms. Young is an active 
member of the Kiwanis Club of Greater Brandon, and of Cornerstone 
Baptist Church, where she serves her community through crochet.
  For more than 23 years, Ms. Young has crocheted blankets and hats for 
those in need, including newborn babies, the homeless, and hospital 
patients. In 2022, she received the Spirit of Kiwanis Award for her 
incredible work.
  Her life is a testament to the power of faith, family, and community, 
and she represents the best of Florida's 15th District. That is why it 
is a great privilege to wish Ms. Young a very happy 100th birthday and 
many more to come.
