  Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Rigoberto A. Ramirez 
for his devotion and dedication to his community as a leader, 
volunteer, and outstanding citizen.
  For his years of service to the City of Stanton, Rigoberto A. Ramirez 
will be honored as Stanton's 2024 Citizen of the Year by the Cypress 
College Foundation at the 49th Annual Americana Awards on March 16.
  A former Stanton City Council member and Planning Commissioner, Mr. 
Ramirez first made Stanton home in 1995 with his new bride, Jhovana. 
They still live in their first home, where they raised their son, 
Nicholas.
  From the day they joined the Stanton community, Rigoberto and Jhovana 
felt a strong connection to both the residents and the community of 
Stanton.
  Along with serving 10 years on the City Council, from 2012 to 2022, 
Rigoberto is an active member of the Blessed Sacrament School 
Consultative Board, the Orange County Youth Motivation Task Force, and 
the Servite High School Board of Directors.
  In his professional life, Ramirez earned his Bachelor of Business 
Administration in 1990 from Loyola Marymount University. A California 
native, he currently holds the title of Director for a retirement 
services firm that he has been with since 1991. He is responsible for 
twelve representatives that provide retirement services to clients 
across eight states.
  In his spare time, he enjoys volunteering for non-profit events and 
managing Pony Baseball.
  Please join me in thanking Rigoberto Ramirez for his years of service 
to the City of Stanton and the Orange County community.
