  Mr. SMUCKER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to offer my sincere 
congratulations to Mr. S. Dale High, of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, as he 
has been named the recipient of the Distinguished Citizen of the 
Commonwealth Award from the Pennsylvania Society.

of the Board, President and CEO in 1977. Over the course of 60 years 
since he joined the business, Dale has transformed the company through 
expansion into new industries, employing nearly 2,000 individuals 
across 38 facilities in 8 states.
  In 1980, the High Foundation was formed. ft is a charitable 
organization which has given generously to support organizations and to 
eliminate the issues that contribute to the cycle of poverty.
  The High Foundation supports those working to solve problems with 
education, housing, transportation, healthcare, financial literacy, 
childcare, nutrition, and more.
  There is no question the positive impact that Dale High's actions and 
leadership have contributed to our Lancaster County community and
