  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Barbara Ann 
Guardino who died on January 29, 2024, at the age of 90. Barbara was 
born in Lawton, Oklahoma to Everett and Velta Server on January 11, 
1934, and was one of four children.
  Barbara and her family moved to San Jose, California when she was 13 
years old. She graduated from James Lick High School where she met 
Richard Venture Guardino.

They were married at Saint Patrick's Church in San Jose in 1954.

  Barbara and Richard had four dearly loved sons, William Richard, 
Michael Joseph; Mark Anthony, and Carl Thomas. She also loved her 
daughters-in-law: Janet, Patti, Chris, and Leslee, and her wonderful 
grandchildren: Natalie (Danny), Nancy (Tim), Billie (Carrie), Jessica, 
Siena, Jake, Chris (Ashley), and David. She adored her four great-
grandchildren: Taylor, Teagan, Naomi, and Geo, and she was very fond of 
her dog Mi Amigo.

  Barbara Guardino will be fondly remembered by all those who were 
privileged to know her for her love, her kindness, and her dedication 
to family and friends.

  Mr. Speaker, I ask the entire House of Representatives to join me in 
honoring the memory of Barbara Guardino, an extraordinary American, and 
in extending our most sincere condolences to her large and loving 
family.
