               HONORING THE CAREER OF MS. JOSEFINA BAZAN

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. HENRY CUELLAR

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 26, 2025

  Mr. CUELLAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ms. Fina Bazan of 
Rio Grande City, who, after 48 years of service at the local Dairy 
Queen, has retired.
  For nearly half a century, Fina has been a familiar and welcoming 
face to countless families and neighbors.
  Though she may not always recall every name, she has always 
remembered the faces of those she served, treating each with warmth and 
kindness.
  Her dedication to her work and her community is an inspiration, and 
her story is one I hold close. My very first job as a young man was 
also at a Dairy Queen.
  I know firsthand the hard work and commitment it takes, and I deeply 
admire Fina's devotion over these many decades.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking Fina for her 
service, congratulating her on her well-earned retirement, and wishing 
her many years of health and happiness ahead.
