  Mr. TOOMEY. Mr. Speaker, today I would like to share my Report from 
Pennsylvania with my colleagues and the American people. Today, I would 
like to highlight the lifelong efforts of a remarkable woman.
  On June 4th of this year, Marguerite Tremaine of Hellertown, PA, will 
turn 100 years old. In reaching her centennial birthday, she has made 
so many rich contributions to others along the way.
  Just like so many of us, her family is her most cherished gift. 
She'll often boast about her nine grandchildren and 13 great-
grandchildren.
  Additionally, her gift of writing poetry has been enjoyed and taken 
up by so many in her family.
  As my wife, Kris, and I travel across the 15th District, we meet so 
many remarkable people. Their stories have truly touched our lives.
  The life story of Marguerite Tremaine has touched our hearts.
  This concludes my Report from Pennsylvania.
