                     HONORING LIFE OF ANTHONY YANIZ

  (Mr. GIMENEZ asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GIMENEZ. Mr. Speaker, I come to the floor today to honor the life 
of Anthony Yaniz, a proud son of Key West and a true pillar of the 
Florida Keys community.
  Tony was a former Key West commissioner and a larger-than-life figure 
who dedicated himself to serving others and strengthening the community 
that he loved.
  Tony's work supported important local institutions, including the Key 
West Veterans Memorial and the Center for Animal Welfare and Education. 
His commitment to his community was not just public. It was personal. 
He showed up for his neighbors time and time again.
  Anthony Yaniz leaves behind a legacy of service, passion, and love 
for Key West. He will be deeply missed, but his impact will live on for 
generations.
  May he rest in peace.
