                       RECOGNIZING ELLIOT ABRAMS

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
Elliot Abrams for 42 years of dedicated service to the residents of 
Patton Township, Pennsylvania.
  Elliot was first elected township supervisor in 1980, after service 
on both the Patton Township Sign and Review Board and the Planning 
Commission. Elliot has a long history of service to Patton Township and 
to the entire Centre region
  For more than 50 years, Elliot delivered the weather report as chief 
forecaster and senior vice president of AccuWeather. He was first hired 
at AccuWeather in 1967. In 1971, Elliot graduated from Penn State 
University with both a bachelor's and a master's degree in meteorology.
  Elliot holds the title of certified consulting meteorologist and the 
AMS Seal of Approval for both radio and television from the American 
Meteorological Society. He is one of only a few living individuals to 
earn this distinction.
  Mr. Speaker, Elliot has dedicated his life in service to the Centre 
region both on and off air, and he will formally retire from the Patton 
Township Board of Supervisors at the end of this year.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish him all the best.
