  Mr. ISSA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Mrs, Zinetta 
Marie Nassif.
  Mrs. Nassif was born on June 3, 1944, and lived an incredible life 
serving her family, community, and country. She had a passion for her 
loved ones and a remarkable giving spirit. Mrs. Nassif was often 
described as the most fun to be around at a party, as she had a keen 
sense for bringing people together. Her ability to connect was best 
exemplified during her tenure abroad with her husband, Ambassador 
Thomas Nassif.
  Mrs. Nassif served alongside her husband, Thomas Nassif, when he was 
Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Morocco. Mrs. Nassif's 
diplomatic efforts were highly regarded by those she worked with. Her 
commitment to public service and unwavering support for her husband 
made her a beloved figure in Morocco and at home in the United States. 
The Nassifs' legacy of service to their country will always be 
remembered and admired by those who knew them.
  On August 5, 2023, Mrs. Zinetta Marie Nassif passed away at her home 
in La Jolla, California. Mrs. Nassif left a noteworthy impact across 
the globe with her servant's heart, and her legacy will continue to 
inspire future generations of Americans.
