                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 13, 2001

  Mr. FLETCHER. Mr. Speaker, it is my honor to recognize J.B. and Gerry 
Amburgey on their 50th wedding anniversary. They have been a vital team 
in Montgomery County since they were married in Camargo on March 13, 
1951.
  The Amburgey's have served the Jeffersonville/Means community for 
over 50 years through their family business, civic duties and church-
related activities. For the majority of their 50 years together, J.B. 
and Gerry worked side by side at W.J. Amburgey & Sons. With the local 
Post Office housed at the same location as the family business, Gerry 
also dedicated 27 years to the community as its PostMaster.
  It is a great honor to provide a tribute for a couple who have 
committed themselves to each other for so many ears. That is why it is 
a privilege for me to rise today and honor J.B. and Gerry's 50th 
wedding anniversary. I wish them many more years of happiness together.
