                      Wednesday, November 1, 2023

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dorothy 
Tazik, a remarkable constituent from my district, and to pay tribute to 
her on the celebration of her 100th Birthday in September of this year.
  Dorothy was born on September 6, 1923, in Wallington, New Jersey, as 
the third child and only daughter of Mary and John Pollak. From New 
Jersey, she and her family relocated to Tullytown and later Bristol in 
Bucks County, Pennsylvania. On October 19, 1946, she married her 
husband Wendel J. Tazik, an Army Air Corps veteran from World War II 
who served faithfully in the Pacific Theater. Dorothy and Wendel 
settled in Levittown, Pennsylvania, where they raised their five 
daughters, and she embarked on a lifetime of devotion as a wife, 
mother, homemaker, and grandmother. Dorothy is further blessed with 9 
grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
  I am personally honored to have arranged for the flag of the United 
States of America to be flown over the United States Capitol on her 
100th Birthday to commemorate this historic occasion in her life. 
Moreover, I am deeply honored to have had the opportunity to present 
this flag to her during her Birthday celebration.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my esteemed colleagues in the U.S. House of 
Representatives to please join me in extending our heartfelt 
congratulations, sincere well-wishes, and all of God's Blessings to 
Dorothy Tazik on the celebration of her 100th Birthday.
