  Mr. EDWARDS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Ms. Lillie Connet, 
for her work as an intern serving in my district office, located in her 
hometown of Hendersonville, North Carolina. I would like to take this 
opportunity to thank her for her hard work and recognize the meaningful 
contributions she has made to the office this summer.
  Lillie is a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel 
Hill, where she is studying human development and family studies and 
political science. She aspires to share her passion for knowledge as 
she pursues a career in education. Wherever she finds herself, Lillie 
selflessly volunteers her time and effort to those around her and is a 
dedicated member of the Western North Carolina community.
  Interns work with staff to serve constituents in North Carolina's 
11th Congressional District. Lillie was chosen from a competitive pool 
of applicants and exceeded every expectation with her positive attitude 
and impressive work ethic.
  It was a pleasure to work with Lillie, and I am so proud to have such 
an intelligent and ambitious intern representing my office. Lillie 
exemplified the spirit of public service and represents the best that 
our Nation has to offer. Congratulations to Lillie on this successful 
completion of her internship, and on behalf of the people of Western 
North Carolina, I thank her.
