        CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF THE ROSELLE ACTIVE SENIORS GROUP

  (Mr. PAYNE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PAYNE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 40th 
anniversary of the Roselle Active Seniors group. It began in 1983 when 
a group of Roselle residents took trips to local places of interest. 
The connections and conversations between the residents soon sparked 
talk of a formal group.
  Today, the Roselle Active Seniors group provides fun activities, 
trips, and outreach opportunities for local seniors, and it is an 
important part of our community. Group members provide Easter baskets 
for children with disabilities, baby supplies for single mothers, toy 
drives and winter clothes for children in need, and food baskets for 
families during Thanksgiving.
  I attended a recent gathering of the group, and I was extremely 
impressed with the members and their organization. It is an incredible 
group that I am proud to have in my district.
