  Mr. SUBRAMANYAM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Tom Kilday, 
an exemplary teacher and community leader in Loudoun County. Mr. Kilday 
is cherished by his students at Trailside Middle School in Ashburn, 
where he taught Special Education.
  Mr. Kilday is known as someone who brightens everyone's day through 
his incredible teaching skills and the delicious treats for his 
students and fellow faculty members. Students and faculty 
affectionately refer to him as ``The Candy Guy.'' He is known at 
Trailside as a smart, tough, and caring educator who takes a creative 
approach to learning in his teaching style. His students leave his 
class with a better understanding of the subject matter and feel ready 
to conquer their next learning journey.
  Mr. Kilday is an example of the outstanding teachers in the Loudoun 
County Public School system who work tirelessly every day to leave a 
positive, long-lasting impact on our younger generation. On behalf of 
our community, we thank him for a lifetime of service and recognize his 
legacy as an all-around amazing teacher, friend, and public servant.
