                 RECOGNIZING ANDERSON'S BODY AND GLASS

 Mr. RISCH. Mr. President, as a member and former chairman of 
the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, each month 
I recognize and celebrate the American entrepreneurial spirit by 
highlighting the success of a small business in my home State of Idaho. 
Today, I am pleased to honor Anderson's Body and Glass as the Idaho 
Small Business of the Month for September 2024.
  Anderson's Body and Glass opened in 1985 in American Falls when 
Delane Anderson was 24 years old. Now owned and operated by Delane, his 
wife Laura, and son Greg, the repair shop has served residents in 
American Falls, Rockland, Aberdeen, and Pocatello for nearly four 
decades. Throughout the years, Delane and Laura's four children have 
all taken turns working at the shop. Today, their dedicated team of 
seven employees prioritizes superior quality and exceptional customer 
service. Their mission is to make customers' collision repair 
experience as pleasant as possible by charging only for necessary 
services at an affordable price. From collision repair to windshield 
replacements, customers appreciate the peace of mind Anderson's gives 
them and the prompt attention that enables them to get back on the road 
as quickly as possible.
  Anderson's puts a high premium on engaging with both business and 
community circles. They have previously been recognized as a Business 
of the Year by the American Falls Chamber of Commerce, inducted into 
the American Falls Education Foundation Hall of Fame, and received the 
Outstanding Community Service Award from Power County.
  Congratulations to the Andersons and all of the employees at 
Anderson's Body and Glass on their selection as the Idaho Small 
Business of the Month for September 2024. Thank you for serving Idaho 
as small business owners and entrepreneurs. You make our great State 
proud, and I look forward to your continued growth and success.
