  Mr. VEASEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of 
a remarkable woman, Daisy Ella Price Kahn, who made significant 
contributions to her community and to the field of education.
  Daisy was born in Marshall, Texas, to the late Memphis and Daisy Bell 
Price, and she

was the middle of five children. A proud graduate of Wiley College with 
a degree in Social Studies and English, Daisy went on to teach and 
inspire countless students in the Fort Worth Independent School 
District. She earned her Master's in Education Counseling from Texas 
Woman's University and dedicated her career to supporting students, 
ultimately retiring as the Lead Counselor at Trimble Tech High School 
in 2001.
  Her impact, however, did not end there. Daisy returned to the 
district as a part-time and substitute counselor, where she continued 
to mentor and guide students until 2008.
  Beyond her work in education, Daisy was an active member of several 
civic and social organizations. She was deeply involved in Alpha Kappa 
Alpha Sorority, Inc., where she held numerous leadership roles and 
performed with the AKA DFW Metroplex Choir. Daisy was also a dedicated 
member of the Fort Worth Wiley College Alumni Club, the Perennial 
Cultural Club, Jack and Jill of America, Inc., and the Negro Business 
and Professional Women's Club, among others.
  Her service to the community extended to her church, historic Greater 
St. James Baptist Church, where she served as a soloist, Sunday School 
Teacher, and chair of the Historical Preservation Committee Funds. 
Daisy leaves behind a loving family, including her three daughters, 
Denise, Dr. Daphne Kahn-Wiley, and Danielle Kahn, as well as her 
grandson, Ian Wiley. Her legacy of service, compassion, and commitment 
to her community will forever be remembered.
  It is my honor to recognize the life of Daisy Ella Price Kahn--a 
woman who touched so many lives through her work, her faith, and her 
unwavering dedication to others. Her contributions will continue to 
inspire future generations.
